What does Gracias porque les gusto mean in English?

The phrase "Gracias porque les gusto" is grammatically incorrect in Spanish. It should be "Gracias porque me gustan".

Here's a breakdown:

* Gracias: Thank you

* porque: because

* me gustan: I like them

Therefore, the correct translation is "Thank you because I like them".

It's important to note that "les" is used when referring to multiple people in the informal "ustedes" form. However, "gustar" is a verb that requires the use of the personal pronoun "me" (I), "te" (you), "le" (he/she/you), etc.

This phrase implies that the speaker is expressing gratitude for something they like. The context would determine what "them" refers to. For example:

* "Gracias porque me gustan tus flores." (Thank you because I like your flowers.)

* "Gracias porque me gustan tus amigos." (Thank you because I like your friends.)

Remember to use the correct personal pronoun when using "gustar" in Spanish.
