Se gustan is referring to la familia and there is more than one person in a family, and no problem any time.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Any time. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's not "se gustan." We'd say "le gustan." We only use "se" whenever there is also a direct object pronoun that starts with L.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And the reason we say "gustan" is because the subject of the sentence, "los dias festivos," is plural.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks, I put le gustan

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just wanna point out that whenever we say "la familia," it's ALWAYS singular. It's true that there is more than one person in a family. But the word "family" itself is a singular noun. That's why we used the word "le," and not "les." De nada.
