Me Gustas Tú

¡Hola! 

If I like it and I know it I say me gusta, just like The Me Gusta Song says. But if I like you (and I know it), I say me gustas tú . But, the song does not say that. I don't recall being taught the gustas form of the verb gustar in Spanish class. I have been under the impression that if I want to say I like you, I would say me gusta tú. But apparently that is not correct. Oh gosh, these reflexive verbs never cease to confuse me! 

Here is a simple (and perhaps a little annoying 😊) song that teaches the basics of using gustar. https://youtu.be/bfHm-AKCoVY

¡Chao!

When you say estoy mortimer , you are saying I am dead tired. I love learning new words and expressions in Spanish. ¡Me cunde poga! Here is a link the the video.   Palabras que us...
