Outline Materi

– ‘like’ + NOUN
– ‘like’ + infinitive (e.g. ‘to walk’)

What do you like?

– ice cream
– summer
– my mother

I like + NOUN
(* here ‘noun’ means a noun or a noun
phrase)

What does she like?
• Other pronouns, as a subject, will take the
same rule with S-V agreement:
– She likes ice cream.
– They like the movie.
– My dog likes bones.
Subject + like/likes + NOUN
5
Like + infinitive
• This is to express (regular) favorite activity
• Examples:
I like to dance.
She likes to shop in Plaza Indonesia.
We like to play basketball after school.
Subject + like/s + verb (infinitive)
• S-V agreement always applies
6
Like + verb + ing
• The ‘Verb + ing’ such as ‘swimming’,
‘reading’, ‘playing’ act like nouns
• They are called gerunds
• The same rule applies:
Subject + like/s + Verb + ing
e.g.
She likes reading.
I like cooking.
• She likes reading = She likes to read
7
What don’t you like?
• Examples:
– I don’t like waiting
– Shirley doesn’t like to wake up early.
– My friends don’t like to play soccer.
• S-V agreement applies
Subject + do/does + not + like + verb

Caution!
• ‘like’ and ‘to be like’ are not the same
• For example:
– She likes animals.
– She is like an animal.
The first sentence means she loves animals.
The second sentence means she behaves
like an animal.

different expressions:
– Subject + Like + Noun

– Subject + do/does + not + Noun
– Subject + do/does + not + Verb infinitive
