Gosto do seu estilo.
GOSH-too doo say-oo esh-TEE-loo
[GOSH-too doo say-oo esh-TEE-loo]
💬 Usage Tip: [do] is [de] + [o], so [gosto do seu estilo] literally works like "I like of your style." The same contraction happens a lot: [gosto da música], [venho do Porto].
🇵🇹 In Portugal: Complimenting someone's [estilo] is usually safer with strangers than complimenting their body or attractiveness. It sounds warm without being too personal.
