A question about " suit one's taste"? Please help ! I know what does it mean in Chinese, it means " 符合某人的口味". I am sure it is correct when I say " This dish suits my taste". Just some food, dishes, or some taste senses "suit one's taste"? My question is can I say " This T-shirt suits my taste, I'll buy it" , " That girl suits Tom's taste, he will ask her to be his girlfriend" ? Thanks a lot!

You could say that, but you would sound a bit odd. Just say: "I like the T-shirt. I'll take it." "That girl suits John. I wonder if he'll ask her out."

I would easily say "I like the shirt, i will buy it" "This girl meets Tom's taste, he will ask her to be his girlfriend". My suggestion neednt to be correctly. Maybe a native speaker have different ways to say it.
