Something is wrong with this sentence: Me gustan tomar comida y corro.

I know that tomar and comida means eat and drink. So there needs to be a verb in there. But tomar can also mean to take so that could be a verb too. I have no clue what corro means.

I am confused

Indeed, there is something wrong! First of all it could be the "context" such as: where did you see this? The verb "gustar" is singular if the "tomar comida y corro" is one phrase. Next, the word "corro" is usually the child's game "ring-around-the-rosy" or used in the expression "hacer corro" = to make room. True, "tomar" is to take, to drink; to get, seize; to catch (a cold) or to take, eat (breakfast) = see what I mean by "context" or "exactly how the word is used." There IS a verb in the sentence you wrote = gustar = to be pleasing.

Also, "corro" could come from the verb "correr" = to run. In that case, "corro" would mean "I run, I do run, I am running!"

Were you trying to say, "I like to eat and to run." ?

If you were trying to say "I like to eat and to run" = Me gusta comer y correr.

yes that's the way you wuld write it

In the given sentence, "Me gustan tomar comida y corro," there are a few issues that need to be addressed.

Firstly, you are correct in recognizing that "tomar" can mean both "to drink" and "to take." However, in this context, "tomar comida" would indicate "to eat," not "to drink." So, in order to convey the meaning of "to eat," it would be more appropriate to use the verb "comer" instead.

Secondly, the word "corro" is the first person singular present tense of the verb "correr," which means "to run." However, it seems unrelated to the sentence's subject, "me gustan," which means "I like." The verb "correr" does not fit well in this sentence, given the context.

To correct the sentence, you could say:

"Me gusta comer comida y correr."

This sentence means "I like to eat food and run," which seems to be more coherent.
