Likes Meaning in English
word · lemma: like
释义
"Likes" can refer to things someone enjoys or prefers, or to the approval shown on social media by clicking a button. For example, "his likes are music and art" or "the photo got 100 likes."
用法与细微差别
"Likes" is used as a noun for preferences (formal/informal) and as the plural of "like" on social media (very common and informal). In the social media context, it can be a countable noun ("5 likes"). It is never used as a verb (that's "likes" as in 'he likes'), and can be confused with 'dislikes' (opposite).
