No native speaker would say “See how it looks like”. That should either be “See what it looks like” or “See how it looks”.

- raymondmoay 5y agoWill fix that. Sorry, I'm from Singapore. Though english is my main language we don't speak it "properly" here I guess.
- WalterGR 5y agoHey no worries! I should have said native speaker in the US. :)
- raymondmoay 5y agoFixed it! Thanks for the catch. In SG we tend to add "like" to our sentences even when they don't make sense...
- dairylee 5y agoI'm from England (North East) and we also tend to use "like" when it doesn't make total sense, but mostly in speech and not in writing. It's used as a bit of a filler word ("There were, like, a lot of people, like, just standing around") or as a way to soften the end of a sentence ("That show was really good like!").
- cercatrova 5y agoNot so sure about that, I've heard more and more people mix up those phrases to arrive at "see how it looks like"
