Saying what you like

- Agree and disagree
- Ask about someone's tastes
🎬 Listen to the scene
Tap a line to hear it, then say it back louder than Luna barks.
Do you like football?
No, I don't like it. I like films.
Me too!
🔑 piace / piacciono
- mi piace + one thing or a verb: Mi piace il gelato. Mi piace cantare.
- mi piacciono + plural: Mi piacciono i cani.
- ti piace? (you) · gli / le piace (him / her) · ci piace (us)
Adam's tip: Literally «it is pleasing to me» — the thing liked is the subject, so it decides the ending.
🧩 Reacting
- Anche a me. · A me no. · Neanche a me. · Davvero?
🤯 Wow fact
«Mi piace» really means «it is pleasing to me» — so the thing you like is the boss of the sentence.
🗣️ Say it fast, say it silly
