New words
doesn’t like · yoqtirmaydilikes · yoqtiradireading · o‘qishwatching · tomosha qilish
Explanation
After “like” we add -ing to the verb: I like reading. He likes watching TV. She likes making cakes. For the negative with he / she we use “doesn’t” (does not) and “like” does not change: “He doesn’t like reading books.” (not “likes”). With I / you / we / they we use “don’t”: I don’t like washing the car.
Worked examples
Bobur likes playing on the computer, but he doesn’t like doing the dishes.
