• We use verbs like gustar to express reactions
to things:

I like your pin.
• Gracias, y ¡ a mí me gustan tus zapatos!
Thanks, and I like your shoes!
What you are REALLY saying when you use gustar
is that something is enjoyable, is pleasing, or
brings enjoyment to someone:
Me gusta tu prendedor: To me your pin is
enjoyable.
Gusta is the singular form of “gustar” because
“prendedor” is singular.
Me gustan tus zapatos: To me your shoes are
pleasing.
(gustan because shoes is plural!)
