Gosto de cozinhar! is a Portuguese equivalent of the English phrase "I like to cook!" The first person singular eu ("I") may begin the sentence even though Portuguese only requires subject pronouns for clarity -- not a problem here because of context and the verb ending -- or emphasis. The pronunciation will be "(EY-oo) GAW-shto djee KOO-zee-NYAH" in Cariocan Brazilian and in continental Portuguese.

There is no Spanish version of The Joy of Cooking book. You could have it translated for a cost if you wish.
