  • Gostaria → de: gostar de
  • de → propor: preposition + infinitive
  • pequena → mudança: agreement

Why it's built this way

The notes match the numbers above.

  1. 1
    Gostaria de + infinitive = "I would like to": gostar always takes de and a personal subject. Politeness: queria, gostaria, poderia, seria →
  2. 2
    propor conjugates like pôr; the infinitive has no accent.
  3. 3
    a pauta = "the agenda" of a meeting.
