  1. Lección 7.4 Verbs that use indirect object pronouns

  2. Gustar and verbs like gustar use the third person singular and plural forms of the verb in any tense. • In other words, we do not conjugate all of the forms, as with other verbs. With these types of verbs, you must know the conjugations of the verbs in the (Ud., él, ella) and (Uds. ellos, ellas) forms. • i.e. gusta gustan encanta encantan gustó gustaron encantó encantaron

  3. You also need to know the indirect object pronouns: me, te, le, nos, os, les. • This is because gustar and verbs like gustar are preceded by an indirect object pronoun to indicate to whom or for whom the action is intended. SINGULAR PLURAL me= to me/for me nos= to us/for us te = to you/for you os = to you/for you le = to him/for him les = to them/for them (her; you) (you)

  4. ENGLISH EQUIVALENT I like that shampoo. Me gusta ese champú.LITERAL MEANING That shampoo is pleasing to me. ENGLISH EQUIVALENT Did you like the classes? ¿Te gustaron las clases? LITERAL MEANING Were the classes pleasing to you?

  5. As the examples show, the construction me gusta(n) does not have a direct equivalent in English. The literal meaning of this construction is to be pleasing to (someone), and it requires the use of an indirect object pronoun. INDIRECT OBJECT DIRECT PRONOUN SUBJECT SUBJECT OBJECT Me gusta ese champú. I like that shampoo. • In the diagram above, observe how in the Spanish sentence the object being liked (ese champú) is really the subject of the sentence. The person who likes the object, in turn, is an indirect object because it answers the question: To whom is the shampoo pleasing?

  6. I like the classes. • S V D.O. • The classes are pleasing to me. S V I.O. • Sentences with gustar and verbs like gustar are like backwards sentences. Me gustan las clases. I.O. Verb Subject

  7. The forms most commonly used with gustar and similar verbs are the third person (singular and plural). • When the object or person being liked is singular, the singular form gustar is used. • When two or more objects or persons are being liked, the plural form or gustar is used.

  8. In negative sentences, the word “no” comes before the indirect object pronoun: • Me gustan las clases. • No me gustan las clases. • Nos gusta estudiar. • No nos gusta estudiar.

  9. To express what someone likes or does not like to do, gustar is followed by an infinitive. • If followed by any number of infinitive verbs, the singular form of the verb is always used. • Me gusta cantar. • Me gusta cantar y bailar.

  10. NEVER use subject pronouns (Yo, Tú, Ud., Él, Ella, Nosotros, Vosotros, Uds., Ellos, Ellas) with verbs like gustar. This is because what we usually think of as the subject becomes the object. • Instead, the construction a + [pronoun] (a mí, a ti, a usted, a él, etc.) is used to clarify or to emphasize who is pleased. It can go before the verb gustar or after it. A ella le gustan las toallas verdes, pero a él no le gustan. She likes green towels, but he doesn’t like them. A ti te gusta cenar en casa, pero no me gusta a mí. You like to eat dinner at home, but I don’t like to.

  11. ¡ATENCIÓN! • Mí (me) has an accent mark to distinguish it from the possessive adjective mi (my).

  12. The construction a + [noun] can also be used before the indirect object pronoun to clarify or to emphasize who is pleased. A los turistas les gustó mucho Machu Picchu. The tourists liked Machu Picchu a lot. A Juanita le gustaron mucho los mercados al aire libre. Juanita liked the open-air markets a lot.

  13. Other verbs like gustar

  14. ¡ATENCIÓN! • Faltar expresses what is lacking or missing. Me falta una página. I’m missing one page. • Quedar expresses how much of something is left. Nos quedan tres pesos. We have three pesos left. • Quedar also means to fit. It’s also used to tell how something looks (on someone). Estos zapatos me quedan bien. These shoes fit me well. Esa camisa te queda muy bien. Te queda muy bien esa camisa. That shirt looks good on you.
