Which is correct?

Which is correct?
 
Which is the correct sentence? Or can you use both?

Me encanta muchísimo su acento.
Me encanto su acento muchísimo.



Saludos.

Encantar does not admit any adverbs, because it's already a superlative.

- Me encanta su acento.

"Gustar" does admit nuances though.
Spanish is a flexible language and words can be placed in different places, but the words modifying another are better placed the closest to what they modify:

- Me gusta muchísmo su acento.
- Me gusta poco su acento.
- No me gusta nada su acento.
- Su acento me gusta muchísimo.
- Su acento me gusta poco.
- Su acento no me gusta nada.

Thanks for the help; how would the above apply to these phrases?

Me encantan tus ojos.

Would the same rule be applied in the above phrase?

Thanks, saludos.

Of course. :)

- Me gustan muchísmo tus ojos
- Me gustan poco tus ojos.
- No me gustan nada tus ojos.
- Tus ojos me gustan poísimo.
- Tus ojos me gustan poco.
- Tus ojos no me gustan nada.

Would that be correct? Saludos.

"Poísimo" must be "poquísimo".

And yes, it's correct, but be careful if you tell someone you don't like her eyes. :p
