JLPT N5

~のがすきです

Like doing something, enjoy doing

Structure

Verb dictionary form + の + が + 好きです

How it works

Used to express liking or enjoying an action. The verb is nominalized so that it can be used with 好き (like).

Examples

本を読むのが好きです。

I like reading books.

Common mistakes

Forgetting the particle の or using を instead of が before 好きです.

Tip

Remember 'V-る の' turns the action into 'the act of V-ing'.
