#2-Dictionary- Love vs. Like

  • Love(verb)
  1. [vn] (not used in the progressive tenses) to have very strong feelings of affection for sb.
  2. to like or enjoy sth very much.
  3. would love: used to say that you would very much like sth .
  1. to find sb/sth pleasant, attractive or of a good enough standard; to enjoy sth.
  2. [no passive] to prefer to do sth; to prefer sth to be made or to happen in a particular way.
  3. [vn] [no passive] to want.
  4. used in negative sentences to mean ‘to be unwilling to do sth’
  5. would like: used with would or should as a polite way to say what you want or to ask what sb wants

I didn't sure how to use the words 'love' and 'like' sometimes . I didn't know what's 'like' different than 'love' in some aspects. After searching Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary, I think they are really different to be used.
