Do you like cats? What are cats like? In this session, we explore different ways of using the word like, with the help of some cute cats.

In Activity 2 we heard about three cats: Chip, Rosie and Martina.
There were two types of question with like:
1) What is Chip like?
This question asks for a description of Chip:
What is Chip like? He is stubborn, but tolerant.
The pattern 'What is ______ like?' doesn't change. You can put the name of a person, place or thing in the gap.
2) What does Chip like?
This question asks about what Chip likes, enjoys or prefers:
What does Chip like? He likes drinking milk and sleeping.
For more information, have a look at our Grammar Reference.
