--------------------------------------------------
Like +-ing — enjoy
I like walking in the rain.
(The infinitive is also possible with this meaning, especially in American English. Deci e POSIBIL, nu alegerea cea mai buna!)
Like + infinitive - choose to; be in the habit of; think it right to
/ like to get up early so that I can get plenty of work done before lunch.
I heard you talking and I didn\'t like to disturb you, so I went away.
Note that would like means \'wish\' or \'want\', and is always followed by the infinitive.
What would you like to do tomorrow? (Not: *What would you like doing tomorrow?}

: totusi, nu cred ca a stat nimeni sa analizeze gramatica, ci pur si simplu au ales varianta care le suna mai naturala, nu credeti?

Nu cred. natural pentru cine, romani? Nu cred ca poti sa suni natural daca nu exprimi exact ce vrei (ori in multe cazuri pe care le-am intalnit agramat).
