Let us look at a few examples

Siddu:
hi! Your shirt looks beautiful. It is in a pleasant colour. I like this green shade.
Ram: I too like this shade. But I do not like dark green.
Siddu: I do not mind dark green. But I hate red.

Siddu: Do you like noodles? I love to eat   it. I’m fond of it.
Ram: Really? Some how I dislike it. I detest some of these fast foods. They harm our health.
Siddu: That’s true. Eating them now and then is OK. But not always.
Ram: I am fond of sweets.
Siddu: I really love something sweet. Let’s have something hot now. Which one you like to have? Coffee or tea?
Ram: I always prefer tea.

Siddu: Hi!
Ram: It seems you have quite many pet animals in your house.
Siddu: Yah! We all love to have pet dogs and birds except cats. They look pretty and cute.
Ram: I too am quite reluctant to have them, because it is believed that their hair is dangerous and cause infections.

Siddu: Would you like to watch the Zimbo circus?
Ram: No, I do not really feel like watching it.
Siddu: Do you like watching a movie at home?
Ram: I do not mind. A comedy film would be better.
Siddu: I too enjoy comedy films.
