The simplest way to think about the verb "gustar" is that it
means "to like." You should therefore have no trouble
translating the following sentence:
Spanish: Me gusta el libro.
The simplest way to think about the verb "gustar" is that it
means "to like." You should therefore have no trouble
translating the following sentence:
Spanish: Me gusta el libro.
English: I like the book.
While this is not untrue, it's not really accurate either. Taking a
closer look at the example sentence, you should notice some
problems
In the English version, things are as we would expect them to be; a
subject is followed by a verb, which is followed by a direct object. The
Spanish version does not follow this pattern however. First of all, you
should notice that if the subject is "I", gustar ought to be
conjugated gusto not gusta. Secondly, "Me" is not the subject but
rather an object pronoun. Even if we tried to make it the subject, the
translation would sound like a caveman talking ("Me like the book").
Something's not quite right with the notion that gustar means "to like."
If "Me" isn't the subject, what is? Clearly gusta is the verb, which
means that "el libro" is actually our subject. If that's the case, a more
literal translation would look something like this:
The book __(?)__ me.
What goes in the blank? Well, the idea of liking a book is not
incorrect; it's just that the subject and object have been
switched around so instead of me liking the book, the
book pleases me.
Spanish: Me gusta el libro.
English: The book pleases me.
Case closed. Mystery solved. Right? Not yet. We're still
oversimplifying things because in this case "Me" happens to be
an indirect object pronoun (IOP) not a direct object pronoun
(DOP).
Examine these sentences closely.
I like the room.
I = subject of sentence
like = verb
the room = direct object
We like the books.
We = subject of sentence
like = verb
the books = direct object
In English, it is correct to construct a sentence that has the subject
"liking" a direct object. In Spanish, this never occurs. In Spanish, a
different construction is used.
English: I like the room.
Spanish: The room is pleasing to me.
English: We like the books.
Spanish: The books are pleasing to us.
