Hey, karistuck. Gustaría is right. It is the conditional form of the verb. In English, such verbs are preceded by 'would," like "I would like."

Hi Kari - just in case English is not your first language - you wouldn't actually say that in English. In English it would sound better to say 'I would like to have a broad imagination'. I know it does mean the same thing but for some reason that is the preferred word for that particular phrase. En Español 'amplia' sí que va bien.

or you could say you would like to have an active / lively imagination :) - FELIZ77, Aug 14, 2010
Feliz, in my wife's case it's an "over-active imagination" - 005faa61, Aug 14, 2010
