Document Summary
Wrong: me gusta relacionarme con gente alegres y chistosas. Correct: me gusta relacionarme con gente alegre y chistosas. Wrong: me aburren las gente que no son inteligentes. Correct: me aburren las personas que no son inteligentes. Personal pronouns (yo, el) cannot be used with verbs like gustar, fascinar, and chocar. You use these verbs with an indirect object pronoun. Use it to me more specific as to who you are talking about. You need a to introduce the person or personas that you are talking about. Gusta is used for a singular object and gustan for a plural object. Always use gusta in front of an infinitive like the third example above. When i and u are together, you never separate them. When a, e, o are together, you always separate them: ex: po/e/ta. When a, e, or o are together with i or u, you never separate them: ex: ciu/dad.
