very common for giving a general idea about the appearance. See examples on the right:
|
tiene
pinta de delincuente:
he looks like a criminal tiene pinta de extranjero he looks a bit foreign |
He looks sad
Note that when we say how something
"seems" or "looks" (probably because we are not certain)
we use “parecer”.
|

|
un hombre
de apariencia fuerte
|
