Hi everybody: I have two questions what is the difference between LOOK LIKE and LOOK ALIKE when do we use them? The second question is when I use: He did that to make the students unsderstand. or He did that to make the students unsderstood. Which one is correct? Please Thanks a bunch.
I don�t know really if there is any difference in meaning but the first difference I would notice is that when you use "alike" the sentence ends there. "they look alike". End of the sentence. But if you use "look like" you write something afterwards. "He looks like his father".
The second question is when I use: He did that to make the students unsderstand. or He did that to make the students unsderstood. Which one is correct?
The first means the students understand something.
the second means other people understand the students eg he hired a translator to make sure the english reporter understood the foreign students.
