Cheat Sheet

  1. Subject - Verb Agreement with Likes and Dislikes -

    Remember that "I," "you," "we," and "they" pair with "like," while "he," "she," and "it" require "likes" (Cambridge University Press). For example: "They like pizza" vs. "She likes pizza." A quick mnemonic is "SHE S" - add S to verbs for She, He, It.

  2. Using Gerunds After Like, Love, Hate, Enjoy -

    Verbs expressing preferences are followed by gerunds (verb+ - ing), not infinitives, according to the British Council. For instance, "I enjoy swimming," "He hates waiting." Practice by listing three activities you "love doing" to reinforce the pattern.

  3. Expressing Ability with Can vs. Preferences -

    "Can" shows ability (e.g., "She can dance"), while "like" and "love" show preference (e.g., "She loves dancing") (Purdue OWL). Distinguish them by noting that "can" is followed by a base verb, whereas preferences use gerunds.

  4. Forming Negative Preferences Correctly -

    To express dislikes, use "don't/doesn't like" or stronger verbs like "hate" plus a gerund (Oxford University Press). Example: "I don't like running" or "He hates running." Tip: Align the negative auxiliary (don't/doesn't) with the subject for accuracy.

  5. Crafting Likes and Dislikes Questions -

    Use "Do/Does + subject + like/love/hate + gerund?" for clear questions about preferences (e.g., "Do you enjoy reading?"). Short answers follow a simple pattern: "Yes, I do" or "No, I don't." Regular practice of likes and dislikes questions boosts confidence and accuracy.
