Put the thing straight after like or love, with nothing in between. love is the stronger one.
like / love + a thing
I like this shirt.
We love Mosh Market.
They don't like the new shoes.
Not "I like to this shirt." — say "I like this shirt.". No to before a thing; the thing comes straight after like.
Try it: A: Is this your best jacket, Maya? B: Yes! I ___ it. (love / want / need) Answer: love — The jacket is already hers, so this is a feeling, and the strong word is love. Love says how she feels about it, and want and need do not say a feeling.
want / need + a thing
want and need also take the thing straight after them, but they are not the same. want is a wish. need is something you cannot do without.
I want a new phone.
I need my keys. I cannot go home without them.
Do you want the big bag or the small bag?
Not "I need a new phone. My old phone is very good." — say "I want a new phone. My old phone is very good.". A good old phone still works, so this is a wish: want, not need.
Try it: Ethan: Diego, your name and phone number here, please. Diego: Oh no, I have no pen. I ___ a pen. Finish what Diego says. (need / want / like) Answer: need — Diego cannot do this without a pen, so this is need, not a wish. want is for a thing that would be nice to have, and like says a feeling, not what he must have now.
Try it: A: Sofia, you have two warm jackets at home. B: I know. But I ___ this one too. (want / need / like) Answer: want — She has two warm jackets, so one more is a wish: want. need would say she has no warm jacket at all, and like is only about her feeling, not about getting it.
