From Lesson 262:The one (el rojo, la de madera, el que quieras)·Spanish (Spain)

Questions & Answers about ¿Te gusta más la camisa blanca o la azul?

Why is más right after gusta instead of at the end of the sentence like in English?
In Spanish, adverbs like más (more/better) usually go immediately after the verb they modify. While English separates them, Spanish keeps them together: Te gusta más.
How does la azul mean the blue one?
In Spanish, you can drop a noun if it is already clear from the context and just keep the definite article (el, la, los, las) plus the adjective. Here, la azul replaces la camisa azul so you do not have to repeat the word camisa.
Why does blanca end in -a but azul does not, since they both describe the feminine noun camisa?
Adjectives ending in -o change to -a for feminine nouns, which is why blanco becomes blanca. However, adjectives that end in a consonant, like azul, do not change for gender. They stay exactly the same for both masculine and feminine words.
Could I say Te gusta mejor instead of Te gusta más?
No. When talking about preferences in Spanish, you always use más (more) instead of mejor (better). To say you like something better, you say te gusta más (literally: it pleases you more).
