Warm-up

Let's talk about food.

1. What is your favorite food?
2. How often do you cook?
3. What food from your country do you miss when you travel?

Grammar rule

Like, love, hate + -ing

	+ -ing	+ a noun
love	I love watching movies.	I love pizza.
like	She likes trying new recipes.	She likes Thai food.
don't like	We don't like washing the dishes.	We don't like junk food.
hate	He hates waiting for the bus.	He hates spicy food.

like + verb + -ing (not I like cook). Americans also say I like to cook: both are right.

-ing spelling, as in unit 16: make → making, sit → sitting.
