I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'enjoying' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with human feelings as well as being present participle verbs.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?

'favour' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for liking that I've seen before include "Partiality" , "Penchant" , "Taste - preference - affection" , "Happy about" , "Being in favour (of)" .)
