partial
When using "partial" to mean biased, it is often used in negative contexts or contrasted with the word "impartial." When expressing a liking for something, the phrase "be partial to" is common and slightly more formal than saying "I like." Be careful not to confuse "partial" (incomplete) with "partly" (somewhat). For example, you would say "a partial success" but "it is partly my fault."
