Having a similar appearance.
文化背景
Norwegians often use 'se ut som' to avoid being too assertive. Instead of saying 'You are wrong', they might say 'Det ser ut som det er en feil her' (It looks like there is a mistake here). Describing nature as 'looking like' something else is a common poetic device in Scandinavian folklore (e.g., mountains looking like trolls). On Norwegian TikTok/Instagram, 'se ut som' is used in 'get ready with me' videos to describe fashion styles.
The Adjective Shortcut
If you just want to say someone looks [adjective], skip 'som' and say 'Du ser [adjective] ut'.
Don't forget 'ut'!
Without 'ut', the sentence usually makes no sense or means something completely different.

'Ligner på' is for strong resemblance (like twins), while 'se ut som' is for any visual appearance.
