Understanding gustar conjugation is essential for all Spanish beginners if you want to know how to talk about things that you like and dislike.
In this video, you'll learn how to use the verb “gustar” to discuss preferences. There are several different ways to say that you like something in Spanish. You can say: Me gusta; Me gusta mucho; No me gusta; No me gusta para nada.
You can use “me gusta” by itself, or you can add verbs to it, if you're talking specifically about different things that you like or don't like to do. For example, you can say: Para mi, me gusta caminar, pero no me gusta para nada correr.
When discussing preferences in Spanish you have to use an indirect object pronoun. This is because you're saying that something else is pleasing to you.
The way you talk about things that you like in Spanish is actually by saying: To me, this is pleasing. This is a different word order than what we’re used to in English, where we say: I like something.
Instead, in Spanish you say that something is pleasant to you. Here are some examples:
-Me gusta tocar el violin. (Playing the violin pleases me/I like playing the violin)
-Me gusta estudiar. (Studying pleases me/I like to study)
-No me gusta limpiar mi casa. (Cleaning my house doesn’t please me/I don’t like cleaning my house)
-No me gusta cocinar. (Cooking does not please me/I don’t like to cook)
For more examples of how to use gustar in Spanish, and to learn about the different forms of gustar, watch the video of Carmen’s Spanish class above! You’ll also get to see two students practice using gustar in conversation.

For English speakers learning French, conjugating verbs can represent a huge challenge. After all, we don’t do as much verb conjugation in English as in French, and so the constant need to conjugate is a fresh challenge for many language learners.
Not only is it a challenging concept to begin with, but the French language is filled with irregular verb conjugations, which constantly catch learners off guard.
And yet, no matter how challenging it may be, learning how to conjugate verbs is arguably one of the most important aspects of learning the French language, and an invaluable skill for French language learners to acquire early on in the learning journey. Verb conjugations allow you to communicate who is taking action, and when the action is being taken.
So, how do you learn to conjugate French verbs? Learning verbs in French involves understanding different verb endings, and adjusting those verb endings - and sometimes the body of the word itself - according to the meaning you want to convey in your sentence.
The good news is, this video lesson makes learning French verb endings easy and stress-free. Here, you’ll get a quick look at the concept of French conjugations, which will demystify the art of conjugating verbs, so you can communicate with ease - both when writing in French and when speaking in this beautiful romance language.
Check out this engaging lesson today, and watch your French communication skills skyrocket to the next level.

In this video, you'll learn how to ask the most common types of questions in Spanish. Once you master this basic vocabulary you'll be able to easily keep a conversation going with friends and family!
Get ready to learn all about the different types of Spanish questions, including “yes or no” questions. You’ll also learn how to form questions as we break down the different sentence structures used in Spanish.
For example, most questions in Spanish are structured: verb-subject. But many times, Spanish-speakers actually leave out the subject entirely, because you can tell what is being asked by how the verb in the question is conjugated.
So for the question, “Do you study a lot?”, you can simply say, “Estudias mucho?”
Next, you’ll learn the different Spanish question words that you can use. These words come before the verb when forming a question. Here are just a few of the words we’ll cover in this tutorial:
-Donde (where)
-Como (how)
-Que (what)
-Quien (who)
-Porque (why)
To learn even more about asking questions in Spanish, keep watching the video above!
