me gusta - i like
te gusta -you like
le gusta - he/she likes
nos gusta - we like
os gusta - we like (spain)
les gusta - they like
If the object you like is plural, add an "n" to gusta to get gustan.
Example,
Me gusta la foto - I like the photo
Me gustan las fotos - I like the photos.
If you mean to use the word "like" in such a way as "Like what's going on man?", I'm not that advanced yet - no se.

"Gustar" or "Amar". HOWEVER, with the verb "gustar", the third-person conjugations (BOTH singular AND plural) are BOTH used because the person or thing you're talking about pleases you or someone else. If you want to say that someone likes you using the verb "gustar", you would use the first-person conjugations of it (BOTH singular AND plural as well). So LITERALLY, "gustar" means "to please."
Examples of using "gustar" referring to someone or something pleasing you or someone else:
--"A ella le gusta la gasolina." ("To her, she likes gasoline.") --Daddy Yankee, "Gasolina"
--"Me gusta Deelishis del programa "Flavor of Love 2."
--"A Juan le gustan escuchar reggaeton y mirar el programa "Three's Company." ("To Juan, he likes to listen to reggaeton and watch "Three's Company.")
Examples of gustar referring to yourself or yourselves pleasing someone else:
--"A Maria no le gusto." ("To Maria, she doesn't like me.")
--"El dueno del restaurante le gustamos." ("The owner of the restaurant likes us.")
In the Spanish language (ESPECIALLY Latin American Spanish), the verb that's used most of the time meaning "to like" is the verb "gustar."

What is it that you're trying to say? "Like" can have two meanings, depending on what you're trying to say... "like" as in attraction, or "like" as in "similar to"?
Like, meaning attracting, is gusta" or in the infinitive, "gustar." (I live candy, "Me gustan los dulces." I like to dance, "Me gusta bailar.")
Like, meaning similar, is "como." (You're like a giant, "Tu eres como un gigante")

To like = gustar (pronounciation: 'goo' like goose, 'star' like star)
Like (conjunction) = como (pron. : 'co' like a connor, 'mo' like modern)
