These are very nice shoes. I prefer these to those ones; they are nicer. (Estos son unos zapatos muy bonitos.

these, those, ones; and a word used to compare two things: nicer.

what we would like to do (lo que nos gustaría hacer). Also, we see the word "them" ("ellos", pronombre de
tercera persona plural; como sujeto es “they”, pero después de un verbo, o una preposición, “them”).

Would you like some coffee?

Do you like coffee?

We use would like to talk about the things we want to do (“me

gustaría [hacer] …”) or to make offers or suggestions. Instead, we
use like to talk about our preferences (“me gusta…”).
