Verb
"Gustar" better avoided ► While gustar is one of the main ways of translating like, its use is not always appropriate. Used to refer to people, it may imply sexual attraction. Instead, use expressions like caer bien or parecer/ resultar simpático/ agradable. These expressions work like gustar and need an indirect object:
I like Francis very much Francis me cae muy bien or me parece muy simpático or agradable
She likes me, but that's all (A ella) le caigo bien, pero nada más
Like + verb ► Translate to like doing sth and to like to do sth using gustar + ((infinitive)):
Doctors don't like having to go out to visit patients at night A los médicos no les gusta tener que salir a visitar pacientes por la noche
My brother likes to rest after lunch A mi hermano le gusta descansar después de comer ► Translate to like sb doing sth and to like sb to do sth using gustar + que + ((subjunctive)):
My wife likes me to do the shopping A mi mujer le gusta que haga la compra
I don't like Irene living so far away No me gusta que Irene viva tan lejos
"How do you like...?" ► Use qué + parecer to translate how do/ did you like when asking someone's opinion:
How do you like this coat? ¿Qué te parece este abrigo?
How did you like the concert? ¿Qué te ha parecido el concierto? ► But use cómo + gustar when using how do you like more literally:
How do you like your steak? ¿Cómo le gusta la carne?
Would like ► When translating would like, use querer with requests and offers and gustar to talk about preferences and wishes:
Would you like a glass of water? ¿Quiere un vaso de agua?
What would you like me to do about the tickets? ¿Qué quieres que haga respecto a los billetes?
I'd very much like to go to Spain this summer Me gustaría mucho ir a España este verano Literal translations of I'd like are better avoided when making requests in shops and restaurants. Use expressions like the following:
I'd like steak and chips ¿Me pone un filete con patatas fritas?, (Yo) quiero un filete con patatas fritas For further uses and examples, see main entry

USAGE:

(1.) Глагол to look в значении "выглядеть как-либо, иметь какой-либо вид" 2. употребляется с последующим прилагательным: to look ill (young, happy). B сочетании хорошо выглядеть (о внешности) глагол to look употребляется с прилагательным well: she looks well она выглядит хорошо/у нее здоровый вид. Сочетание to look good обозначает быть на вид хорошего качества: the meat looks good мясо на вид свежее/хорошее/неиспорченное. (2.) Русское предложение Как он выглядит? имеет разные английские соответствия: в случае, если имеется в виду человек незнакомый (и предложение соответственно обозначает Каков он из себя?), то употребляется What does he look like? B том случае, если человек знакомый (и предложение обозначает Как он себя чувствует?), эта фраза соответствует How does he look? (3.) Выражение to look like smth соответствует русскому похоже: it looks like rain (snow, storm) похоже, что будет дождь (снег, гроза).

WAYS OF DOING THINGS:

Глагол to look даёт общее, нейтральное название действия "смотрения", не конкретизируя его характера. Характер этого действия находит выражение в ряде других глаголов, таких как to glance и to give a glance, to gaze, to stare, to gape, to glimpse, to scowl, to squint.

To squint - "посмотреть искоса, пристально, прищурившись; смотреть на что-либо, кого-либо, чтобы лучше разглядеть": she squinted at the paper but it was imposible to read what was written there она прищурившись посмотрела на документ, но прочитать то, что там было написано было невозможно; squinting through the frosted glass window I could just make out my sister's car in the distance вглядываясь через замёрзшее стекло окна, я мог только рассмотреть вдали машину моей сестры.

To glance, to give a glance - "бросить беглый взгляд; посмотреть бегло, скользя глазами вверх и вниз": during the meal he kept glancing at the door, obviously expecting someone to walk in за едой он всё время посматривал на дверь, явно ожидая, что кто-то войдёт; I saw them glancing at each other as if they knew something I did not я видел, как они бросали друг другу быстрые взгляды, как будто знали что-то, чего я не знал; glancing into the kitchen she realized no one was home заглянув в кухню, она поняла, что никого дома не было; Greg glanced sideways at his friend, trying to catch his eye Грэг искоса взглянул на друга, стараясь поймать его взгляд; a glance at my watch told one it was nearly five o'clock взглянув на часы, я увидел, что было уже пять часов.

To shoot/cast/throw a glance - "бросить быстрый взгляд, посмотреть вверх и вниз": she shot a quick glance over her shoulder to see who was following her она быстро взглянула через плечо, чтобы увидеть, кто за ней шел; she cast a glance around the room, taking in her surrounding она быстро окинула комнату взглядом, чтобы понять, кто её окружает.

To gape - "глазеть; смотреть на что-либо, разинув рот от удивления": she stood there gaping at me too shocked to speak она в изумлении уставилась на меня, не в состоянии сказать что-либо; Jim gaped, open-mouthed, trying to take in what they had told him Джим (обалдело) смотрел на них, широко разинув рот, пытаясь понять, что они ему сказали; I could only gape in astonishment as he picked up the gun and pointed it at me в изумлении я уставился на него, видя как он схватил пистолет и направил его на меня.

To peep, to have a peep - "украдкой, быстро бросить взгляд, особенно через узкое и маленькое отверстие": the house seemed empty, but I peeped in through the window to see if anyone was there дом, казалось, был пуст, но я заглянул внутрь через окно, чтобы убедиться, что там никого нет; close your eyes, I have a surprise for you; no peeping! закрой глаза и не подсматривай, у меня для тебя сюрприз; she felt tempted to have a peep at her neighbours' garden у нее был большой соблазн украдкой заглянуть в сад соседей; the children could never attend their parents' parties, but they were allowed to peep through the door дети не имели права участвовать, когда у родителей были гости, но им разрешалось заглянуть в дверь.
