PS: I don’t understand the structure of this sentence. If possible, please do the grammatical analysis about what I have asked.
Many thanks for your responses. Now, I’d like to ask you about “look like” and “look”, “seem like” and “seem”…
1/You know, I wonder whether to use “like” or not in some cases, such as:
It looks like an interesting book. (1)
It looks an interesting book. (2)
Many people said they have the same meaning. Do you think they have the same meaning? If yes, what is the meaning of like in (1)? Like here is necessary or not?
If no, what is the difference btw them?
2/ It looks as if it’s an interesting book. (3)
Do you think (1), (2) ,(3) have the same meaning?
If not,what is the difference btw them?
