Expressing preferences
I Observe and Learn
When we express preferences we give our opinion about things we like more than others.
- I prefer reading books to watching TV.
- I prefer to read books rather than watch TV.
1 Rules to keep in mind
When we express preferences we use the verb «prefer» followed by «to» or «rather than».
- Subject + prefer something to something else.
- a)I prefer photos to drawings.
- Subject+ prefer doing something to doing something else.
- b)I prefer driving to travelling by train.
- Subject + prefer to do something rather than (do) something else.
- c)She prefers to drive rather than travel by train.
- d)He prefers to live in the country rather than in the city.
When we want to know about your preferences, we ask:
Do you prefer driving or flying?
The structure:
Do + you + prefer doing something or doing something else?
Does + he / she + prefer doing something or doing something else?
