[de viento, pasiones] force3. [incomodidad] awkwardnessLA VIOLENCIAOn 9th April 1948, the leftist Liberal Party leader of Colombia, Jorge Eliécer Gaitán, was murdered in Bogotá. Popular outrage led to an outburst of violent street rioting (known as “el bogotazo”), which was put down within a few days. However, this sparked off ten years of virtual civil war in the countryside between supporters of the Liberal and Conservative parties in which some 300,000 people died. This period is known as la Violencia, and only ended when the two parties, united by their opposition to the dictatorship of General Rojas Pinilla (1953-7), agreed to form a Frente Nacional under which they alternated in power over the next 16 years.* * *f violence* * *violencia nf: violence* * *violencia n violence -

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.
