Like, Want, Would Like ¡No teconfundas!

Want (Querer) Do you want . . . ? ¿Quieres…? Didyouwant…? ¿Querías…? O ¿Quisiste…? Like (Gustar) Do you like . . . ? ¿Tegusta…? Did you like…? ¿Tegustaba…? / ¿Tegustó…? Would like (fórmulaeducada, amablepara “querer”) It means want. It does not mean like. Wouldyoulike . . . ? ¿Querrías…? (petición amable). En español, a menudo decimos sólo “¿Quieres...? Pero en inglés, si pretendes ser amable, educada/o, pregunta con el “would”. Traduce los ejemplos: (Gina has somecandy. Al doesn't have any candy.) Gina: Do you want some candy, Al? (friendly / casual = informal) Would you like some candy, Al? (polite = educado) Al: No, thanks. (Al doesn't want any candy.) (There's a good movie tonight. Bob hopes Cathy will go with him.) Bob: There's a really good movie tonight. Would you like to see it with me? (Why does Bob use would like?) Cathy: Yes, I'd like that very much. (Why does Cathy use would like?) Other examples: I like green tea. (I enjoy drinking green tea.) I'd like green tea. (I want some green tea.) I like visiting Internet chatrooms. (I enjoy that - a hobby.) I'd like to visit Internet chatrooms. (I probably haven't visited Internet chatrooms, but this is something I want to do.) Special Note: Negative answers for polite "Would like . . .?" questions usually don't use "would like." Instead, polite answers are usually "No, thank you’’ or something similar.
