I have a question about the Spell-like ability that gnomes are granted.
As stated in the Core rulebook:
Gnomes with a Charisma of 11 or higher also gain the following spell-like abilities: 1/day — dancing lights, ghost sound, prestidigitation,
and speak with animals.
My question is does this essentially mean that a Gnome sorcerer could choose 4 Cantrips from his class AND have these extra Cantrips at his disposal once a day as a spell like ability?
Or does it mean I need to pick one of these Cantrips and I get an additional 1 use per day of them?

The former is correct. You gain the listed cantrips above and beyond whatever cantrips you learn as a Sorcerer. If, for example, you chose Dancing Lights as one of your Sorcerer cantrips, you could then cast it as much as you like (from Sorcerer), plus once per day. If you didn't pick Speak with Animals for one of your Sorcerer cantrips, you can still use it once per day, just for being a Gnome.
Does that make sense?
