3 frml (sentir agrado o afición) gustar de, to enjoy: gusta de salir a pasear por las mañanas, he likes to have a walk in the morning
II vtr (degustar, probar) to taste
Gustar se traduce por to like: Me gusta esta música. I like this music. Sin embargo, recuerda que en español el sujeto del verbo gustar es lo que nos gusta (esta música), mientras que en inglés el sujeto del verbo to like es I.
Si quieres añadir un verbo como complemento del verbo to like (me gusta nadar), debes emplear el gerundio, que siempre sugiere algo placentero: I like swimming. Pero si más que gustarte simplemente te parece una buena idea o lo haces por tu propio bien puedes usar el infinitivo: I like to go to the dentist twice a year. Me gusta ir al dentista dos veces al año. Sería muy difícil que alguien dijera I like going to the dentist, porque significaría que disfruta haciéndolo.
En el modo condicional ( I would like) sólo se puede usar el infinitivo: I would like to go out tonight. Me gustaría salir esta noche.
gusto sustantivo masculino
1 (sensación) taste
2 (para apreciar la belleza) taste: la tía Rosa tiene muy mal gusto, aunt Rose has very bad taste
fue un comentario de mal gusto, it was a remark in bad taste
3 (inclinación, agrado) liking: esa literatura no es de su gusto, he doesn't like that kind of literature
para mi gusto está precioso, I find it very pretty
4 (placer) pleasure: lo hace por gusto, she does it for the sake of it
este solecito es un gusto this sun is very nice
no tengo el gusto de conocerle, I have not had the pleasure of meeting him
♦ Locuciones: a gusto, comfortable o at ease
