What is Sam like?
Can we use this question to learn about Sam �s personality? or his physical appearance? Or both of them possible?
This is a trouble for me for a while.
Thanks a lot in advance. |

For asking about physical appearance say:What does Sam look like? For asking about personality you say: What is Sam like?

Remember BE LIKE is used for PERSONALITY, whereas LOOK LIKE for appearance. Therefore, "what is Sam like?" is used to talk about his personality.
