In English, we would say “She likes the movie.” In Spanish, we translate that as Le gusta la película. A literal translation would be: Le (to her/him) gusta (is pleasing) la (the) película (movie). The subject of the sentence is different in both languages: in English, the subject is the person; while in Spanish, the subject is the movie (or the book in the first example.) Because of that, the Spanish verb gustar needs an indirect object pronoun:

• Me (to me)
• Te (to you, singular)
• Le (to him, to her)
• Nos (to us)
• Os (to you, plural)
• Les (to them)

Me gusta vs. Me gustan

Let’s see what me gusta in Spanish means, and how to use it with examples.

To recapitulate, me, te, le, nos, os, and les are indirect object pronouns, and the item a person likes (libro, película, etc.) is the subject of the sentence. Because of that, the verb (gustar) must match the subject in number:

• Me gusta el libro. (I like the book./Or the literal translation: The book pleases me.)
• Me gustan los libros. (I like books.
• Nos gusta el libro. (We like the book.)
• Nos gustan los libros. (We like the books.)
• No te gusta nada. (You don’t like anything./Nothing pleases you.) (Learn more about how to use nada in Spanish.)
• No les gusta nada. (They don’t like anything./Nothing pleases them.)

As you can see, the Spanish verb gustar ONLY changes its form (gusta/gustan) according to the number (singular/plural) of liked objects, and NOT according to the pronoun (me/nos). Because of that, we use gusta for singular and gustan for plural.
