Best answer
Hi Milania! We say "te gusta" when we refer to one thing (singular) or activity you like. Example: ¿Te gusta el chocolate? / ¿Te gusta viajar? / Te gusta el cine. / Te gusta leer. On the other hand, we say "te gustan" when we refer to things in plural. Example: ¿Te gustan los coches? / Te gustan las películas de acción. Hope my explanation was helpful! Fernando
