2017年9月11日 · "like to do" is a bit confusing to me. " An English text book I'm using says that "like to do" means you love to do something generally or in a specific situation, depending on the context. But "like to do" doesn't sound to me that you love to do something generally but sounds like you want to do something in a specific situation.

I'm supposed to list two things I would like about this job and two things I would not like. Can I say: - I would like meeting people. - I would like helping clients. BUT: - I wouldn't like organising parties.

I expect something to follow: 'I like it most when/if..... Word order may make a difference. 'Something I like most,' may follow a pattern from the one we expect with 'I like [something] most.'

In this particular sentence what follows could either correspond to « do », requiring a verb, or « things », requiring a noun. So we could change eat to eating and the overall meaning would be the same.
