Usage notes

Agradar is usually translated as like, but subject and object are reversed from those of to like. That is, the subject of agradar is the thing that pleases and the indirect object is the person who likes it. As the object is indirect, a third-person subject is supplemented with the preposition a.

T'agrada el menjar? — Do you like the food?
M'agrades molt. — I like you a lot.
A la noia li agradaven les flors. — The girl liked the flowers.

Compare also Spanish gustar, which is similar.
