Hola todas. Tengo un duda sobre el verbo Gustar y outras verbos parecidos. (hay alguen que sabe el nombre de estos verbos tipos)

Gustara

Encanta
Queda

Estoy conocomiento con el verbo en este contexto cuyo es utilizado en el tiempo presente.
por ejamplo;

etc etc

Pues, como se puede usar gustar, en este contexto, en outras formas por ejamplo la forma preterito indefinido.
si' quero decir " ayer vi un pelicula y mi gust??? mucho"
En este caso, el verbo gustar seguira' la forma normal de outras verbos que terminar e AR?

Welcome to the forums!

Chileno has already mentioned that there are other threads where your answers can be found.

Below, I've corrected what you wrote and I also changed your thread title.

Los estoy aprendiendo con el verbo en este contexto cuyo utilización está en el tiempo presente.
Por ejemplo:
Me gusta la cerveza.
Me gustan los árboles.
Les encantan las frutas.
etc. etc.

Pués, ¿cómo se puede usar gustar, en este contexto, en otros tiempos? Por ejemplo, el tiempo pretérito indefinido.
Si quiero decir, "Ayer vi una película y me gust??? mucho," en este caso, ¿el verbo gustar seguirá la forma normal de otros verbos que terminan en AR?

In your proposed sentence about the movie you liked, you would use the preterite tense ending you're used to seeing in other -ar verbs. However, pay attention to the subject. The verb ending will differ depending on whether the subject is singular or plural. In your case, the subject is 'movie' (established in the primary clause) and it's singular. So, you would write, "... y me gustó mucho."

Not that I can think of. These are just verbs that take an indirect object.

In English, the sentence 'I like books' has a subject (I), a verb (like) and a direct object (books). Another way we could say the same thing in English is, "Books are pleasing to me." This latter structure is what you are using in Spanish when you use verbs like 'gustar'.

Me gustan los libros. -or- Los libros me gustan.

(The subject 'los libros' can either follow or precede the verb in Spanish.)

Students of Spanish are often taught that 'Me gustan los libros' means 'I like books', but that makes it difficult to correlate the parts of speech. This is mainly because there is no correlation.
'Los libros' is the subject in the Spanish sentence. They, the plural subject, 'are pleasing'. To whom are they pleasing? Why, the indirect object. That is the person who is pleased by the books.
So, I hope you can see that it is really misleading to say that 'I like books' is translated as 'Me gustan los libros." The better translation is 'Books are pleasing to me.' That way, everything has a correlation.

Applying the same logic to the other verbs that are like 'gustar'
('encantar', 'molestar' , 'fascinar', 'doler', 'interesar', 'parecer', 'importar', 'quedar', 'faltar' y otros)
will help you to make better sense of them, too.

Here's one site that examines this verb and lists others like it.

gustar es refelxivo?
 
Hola

Estoy un poco inseguro sobre una cosa más con respecto al verbo gustar. El verbo gustar es reflexivo?

aleCcowaN October 24, 2012 01:27 PM

No, no es reflexivo.

AngelicaDeAlquezar October 24, 2012 01:57 PM

:thinking: Puede tener una función reflexiva:

- Juan y Laura se gustan. -> La acción sucede recíprocamente entre dos individuos.
- Me gusto siempre que me veo en el espejo. -> Algo narcisista, pero la acción cae sobre sí mismo.

JPablo October 24, 2012 03:21 PM

Yes, I agree.
While it is not a reflexive verb, "gustarse" does exist with reflexive meaning: "No me gusto con estos pelos", "No es que ella se guste, es que se adora".
