"Like" and sense verbs

15/19
Recursos

Tenemos cinco sentidos con los que podemos: ver, escuchar, oler, saborear, tocar. En el idioma inglés podemos usar algunas acciones particulares para referirnos a estos sentidos y combinarlos con “like” para describir una cosa o describir a una persona.

  • You look like your dad / Te pareces a su padre.
    Usando la vista notamos que alguien tiene un parecido con otra persona.
  • He sounds like his brother / Él suena como su hermano.
    Puede que no lo veamos, pero por el oído notamos una voz similar a la de alguien más.
  • It smells like coffee / Huele a café.
    Como entrar a una cafetería y percibir con tu nariz el olor del café.
  • It feels like cotton / Se siente como el algodón.
    Con tus dedos o tu cuerpo sientes una sensación parecida o igual a algo que ya habías sentido antes.
  • It tastes like chicken / Sabe a pollo.
    El gusto que percibes con tus papilas gustativas de un sabor que ya habías probado antes.

Como ves, dependiendo de qué sentido estés hablando, empleamos look, sounds, smells, feels o tastes, siempre acompañado de like para comparar a alguien o algo. Esta forma de expresarse ayuda que los demás puedan comprender de una mejor manera qué es lo que estás sintiendo o percibiendo.

Vamos a intentar describir lo que percibimos con ciertos sentidos. Cierra tus ojos e inhala profundo. Ahora contesta a las siguientes preguntas usando las expresiones aprendidas.

  • What can you smell? / ¿Qué puedes oler?
  • What can you hear? / ¿Qué puedes escuchar?
  • What can you touch? / ¿Qué puedes tocar?
