Does this make sense: "Espero que te guste" ?

I would like to say "i hope that you like it". Does Espero que te guste translate as that? Originally i had written Espero que te gusta but then i saw in my grammar book that Esperar + que is followed by the subjunctive. ahhhh estoy confundida!

Yes, but better without the "yo". - samdie, Jul 29, 2010
I know this Samdie. I just wrote it to emphasise de difrencia entre "I" and "You" - JorgeViento, Jul 31, 2010

Yes, I would say that this is correct for what you want it to mean:
Espero que te guste = I hope that you like it
You would need to use the subjunctive mood in this situation as you are wanting to express a wish, a desire or a hope that....
For more information on using the Subjunctive mood .. please view Paralee's

It is not "you are pleasing to you", but "it" is pleasing to you. - 0074b507, Jan 6, 2011
