When using 对 (duì) as a preposition, it means "to" or "towards" an object or target. As with all prepositions, you've got to watch out when using this word, as usage of 对 in Chinese doesn't always totally "make sense" or correspond to English at all.

Structure: Subj. + 对 + Person + Verb
Examples
宝宝 对 我 笑 了 。Bǎobao duì wǒ xiào le.The baby smiled at me.
小狗 在 对 你 叫 。Xiǎogǒu zài duì nǐ jiào.The dog is barking at you.
你 不 应该 这样 对 父母 说话 。Nǐ bù yīnggāi zhèyàng duì fùmǔ shuōhuà.

Colloquial Expression 对……来说
In English we often start sentences with "to someone" or "for someone" when sharing that person's perspective. In Chinese, the pattern is: 对 + Person + 来说 ,⋯⋯

Usage with Specific Verbs

Certain verbs, especially psychological verbs, are often used with 对, which means 对 is needed if you want to add an object into the structure. I good example is 对……感兴趣 ("to be interested in..."). In this case, 对 means "in," "on," "about," etc., and the object doesn't have to be a person. The short list below will give a few more verbs frequently paired with 对.
Structures

对⋯⋯有兴趣 (yǒu xìngqù) to have an interest in...
对⋯⋯感兴趣 (gǎn xìngqù) to feel interested in...
对⋯⋯负责 (fùzé) to be responsible for...
对⋯⋯满意 (mǎnyì) to feel satisfied with...
对⋯⋯失望 (shīwàng) to be disappointed in/with...
对⋯⋯好奇 (hàoqí) to be curious about...

Wǒ érzi duì xué wàiyǔ hěn gǎn xìngqù.
My son is very interested in learning foreign languages.

2.你 应该 对 自己 的 工作 负责 。

3. 老板 对 你 不 太 满意 。
