The suggested translation is tycker om, which has been taught.

The word isn't taught in the course, and it's only an accepted answer here (it means 'the kid', though a little more colloquial maybe) but it can be shown to you if the system 'thinks' you input something that is similar to it.

But it's easy – 'like' is tycker om or gillar, and 'love' is älskar. Simple as that!

Yes, when using the verb tycka om, it's two words and om always comes after.

But the adjective omtyckt (well-liked) is one word and here om comes first.
