Hello,

1."My brother is fond of pointing out my mistakes."

2."My brother has a liking for pointing out my mistakes.

3."My brother likes to point out my mistakes.

What is the difference among 'be fond of', 'have a liking for' and 'like'?

Thank you very much.

They mean the same thing they're just different ways of saying it.
