Способы выразить свою любовь к чему-нибудь: I like it

Мне нравится...

Всегда хорошо, когда вам многое нравится и хотелось бы этим поделиться, рассказать обо всём поподробней и в красках, используя оттенки и не повторяясь в высказываниях. Идеальный рассказ о любымых занятиях мгновенно представляется в голове, как безупречное полотно маститого художника, но как только вы собрались переложить блестящие мысли в речь, полотно неминуемо искажается и напоминает скорее неуверенную мазню, чем шедевр. Ну, хватит об искусстве, перейдём к практике речи, что тоже искусство, правда :)

Итак, скажем нейтральная фраза "Мне нравится" может приобрести новый образ, как только мы приправим её эмоциями в виде выражений "Я без ума" или "Я увлечён". Всё, задача ясна, переходим к знакомству и усвоению подобных высказываний на английском языке.
