• What do you like doing at the weekend? I love going shopping for new clothes.
• Do you like taking the bus? No, I don’t. I really hate it - it’s very slow. I prefer taking the
train but it’s very expensive.

We use love / like / doesn’t or don’t like / hate to talk about how we feel about doing
something.
We use prefer to say we like one thing more than another thing.
When we make short yes/no answers, we say "Yes, I like" or "No, I don’t like" / "Yes, I do" or "No, I
don’t".
We use the adverb really to show strong feelings. This word comes before / after the main verb.
