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.

В этой конструкции обычно используются глаголы состояния (State verbs), такие как be, have, knowI wish she were here now! — Жаль, что ее здесь нет (Было бы здорово, если бы она была здесь)
I wish I had his constitution — Жаль, что у меня не его конституция (Хотел бы я иметь его телосложение)
I wish I had a car! — Жаль, что у меня нет машины! (Хотел бы я, чтобы у меня была машина)
He wishes he knew English — Ему хотелось бы знать английский.
He wishes you weren't leaving so soon — Ему жаль, что вы уходите так рано.
б) форма, совпадающая с Past perfect используется для выражения сожаления относительно действия или состояния в прошлом.Конструкция A wishes B had done C означает "A хотелось бы, чтобы B сделал С, но B, к сожалению, этого не сделал"I wish I had known it was your friend — Жаль, я не знала, что это был твой друг.

С помощью данной конструкции можно выразить раздражение или негодование относительно существующего положения дел с пожеланием изменить его в будущем, а также высказать просьбу (просьба при этом тоже часто содержит оттенок раздражения: "вы могли бы и сами предложить мне помощь, а мне приходится самому просить вас").I wish he would answer my letter — Хотелось бы, чтобы он ответил на мое письмо (хотя вряд ли он на него ответит).
I wish you would help me — Вы могли бы помочь мне.
б) В конструкции C wishes A would do B C не может совпадать с A. Поэтому нельзя сказать, например *I wish I would...3) Выразить сожаление о том, что некоторое действие скорее всего не сможет осуществится в будущем, можно также употребив в придаточном дополнительном после wish глагол could.I wish we could meet more often — Жаль, что мы не сможем встречаться чаще (Хотел бы я, чтобы мы смогли встречаться чаще)
4) wish практически всегда можно заменить на if only - если бы только. if only, однако, не используется в просьбах.If only this were a game instead of reality! — Если бы только это было игрой, а не реальностью! (Хотел бы я, чтобы это было игрой, а не реальностью).
