似てる/そっくりって英語でなんて言うの？

※20201022のブログ更新

Hi everybody!

Here are two useful expressions you can use to describe someone`s appearance:

①「似てる」 in English is…

A look(s) like B…or…A and B look alike

Here are some examples…

You look like Manami.

Tom looks like Jimi. ←三単現ですから動詞の “look” に “s” を付けます。

Tom and Jimi look alike.

②「そっくり」 in English is…

A look(s) just like B…or…A look(s) exactly like B…or…A and B look exactly alike

Here are some examples…

Julia looks exactly like Tina!

You look just like your father!

That baby looks just like you!

Julia and Tina look exactly alike! ←”A and B look just alike” とは言いません。複数形の主語の場合は “just” じゃなくて、いつも “exactly” を使います。

Well, that`s all for today.  

Catch you later!
