HOW TO SAY ¿CÓMO ES/ESTÁ? in English

¿Cómo ES?
WHAT is it LIKE? Describe it to me. Tell me about it.

¿Cómo ES él? / ¿Cómo ES ella?
What is he like? / What is she like?

You ask this when you want someone to DESCRIBE something or someone, just like in Spanish.

But what if you have made a painting, or written a poem, or done a project, and you want to know what your friend thinks about it?

¿Cómo ESTÁ?
HOW is it?

Is it satisfactory? Do you like the way I did it? What do you think? ¿Qué te parece?

Of course, talking about people is a little different, in which case you are asking about someone's health or WELL-BEING (su bienestar).

¿Cómo ESTÁ él? / ¿Cómo ESTÁ ella?
How is he? / How is she?
