Grammar: Would you like + noun / Would you like to + verb

Form	Structure
Affirmative	I'd like a coffee, please.,I'd love to come!,Yes, I'd like to go.
Negative	Sorry, I can't.,No, thank you.,I'd like to, but I'm busy.
Interrogative	Would you like some coffee?,Would you like to come to the party?,Would you like to go to the movies?

Common Errors

Would you like go to the movies? → Would you like TO go to the movies?
Would you like + TO + verb. Don't forget TO!

Do you like to come to my party? → Would you like to come to my party?
DO YOU LIKE = general preference. WOULD YOU LIKE = specific invitation/offer.

Explicação (PT-BR):
WOULD YOU LIKE e uma forma educada de oferecer ou convidar. + NOUN = oferta (Would you like some coffee?). + TO + VERB = convite (Would you like to come?). Respostas: Yes, I'd love to! / Sorry, I can't. NAO confundir com DO YOU LIKE (= voce gosta de).

Watch for:
- 'Would you like go' (sem TO) — ERRO CLASSICO. Sempre: Would you like TO + verb.
- Do you like vs Would you like: brasileiros confundem 'Voce gosta' com 'Voce quer/gostaria'. Insistir na diferenca com exemplos.
- I'd = I would. Pronuncia rapida: /aɪd/. Aluno pode nao perceber a contracao.
- Sorry I can't: ensinar que dar uma RAZAO e mais educado ('I'm busy', 'I have class').
- Let's = Let us (contracao). Pronuncia: /lɛts/. Uso: sugestao ('Vamos!').
- How about = Que tal. Seguido de noun ou -ing: 'How about Friday?' / 'How about going to the park?'
