kikiriki mi je všeč

The concept “to like something (to fancy something)” requires the construction of: biti + všeč where the experiencer is assigned the dative and the admired object the nominative case. Tip: if translated with the German:   X ist mir lieb ( X is dear to me ), the cases make perfect sense.  Mačka mi je všeč → Die Katze ist mir lieb (die Katze mir ist lieb), I like the cat Slika mi je  všeč  →  I like the picture, (das Bild ist mir lieb, )  Gorazd (ti) si mi všeč → Gorazd (Du) bist mir lieb   kikiriki mi je všeč  →   I like peanuts PS: Kikiriki, so far the funniest word I've come across. Beats even the French cacahuète .
