Verbs of preference

Verb Spanish + infinitive + verb-ing


like to eat eating
love to sing singing
prefer to study studying
enjoy XXXXXX playing
want to play XXXXX
hate to cry crying

Note:

31
1. As a general rule, verbs of preference (to like, to love, to hate, to prefer) are followed by a
verb in the infinitive if precise actions are being referred to:

I hate to end this conversation, but I have to go.

Or when talking about repeated actions.

He loves to read long novels.

2. But when we are talking about permanent situations, we use the -ing form.

Paulo loves living by the beach in Rio.


Do you like working as a teacher?
She hates cooking dinner

Write sentences using verbs of preference about your own likes and dislikes.
