I do find this confusing even though I understand the grammatical logic behind it. But my (temporary) solution is to get away from thinking in English and adopt the Spanish viewpoint. So I think “I please you” (te gusto); “you please me” (me gustas); “he pleases them” (les gusta) etc. , rather than "you fancy me"......
I believe it’s better as a general principle to try to think in the target language, rather than translate from your own language into the target language.
Hope this helps.
HELP: Translation of "He goes to his friend's house"
1 Va a la casa de su amigo
2 Va a casa de su amigo
Is the definite article "la" casa necessary or does it make no difference?
Are both correct with no subtle difference in meaning?
I have searched the internet and KWIZIQ and can find no answer.
Many thanks,
Ian

When is tiempo used?
So the difference between cuál/cuáles and el cual/la cual/los cuales/las cuales is that cuál and cuáles are not preceded by articles and will only be used in questions, whereas el cual/la cual/los cuales/las cuales are preceded by articles and will not be used in questions?
What is the point of having a yo before the tengo. Cant you just put the Tengo.
Why can that not translate as "I like to dance" or must the "literal" option of "dancing is liked by me" then become "I like dancing".
Oportunidad is a feminine noun. Why was it marked wrong when I wrote grande? The correction was to gran.
