How is …? We use How is …? to ask about someone’s general health or about the condition or state of something, or how people experience something: A:How’s your mother these days? (How is her general health?) B:Oh, she’s fine, thanks. [talking about an old house] A:How are the walls in the kitchen? (What is the condition/state of the walls?) B:Well, they need redecorating really. A:How’s your new car? B:Wonderful. It’s so much easier to drive than the old one. What is … like?We use What is … like? to ask for a description of someone or something (e.g. their appearance, their character, their behaviour): A:What’s her new house like? B:It’s a modern one, quite big, with a nice garden. A:What’s your new teacher like? B:He’s nice. He’s very good-looking! But he’s quite strict. Warning:We don’t use How is … like? to ask for a description of something: A:Have you ever had Korean kimchi? B:No. What’s it like?
