[Middle English, from like, similar (from Old English gelc, and Old Norse lkr) and from like, similarly (from Old English gelce, from gelc, similar); see lk- in Indo-European roots.]

Usage Note: Writers since Chaucer's time have used like as a conjunction, but 19th-century and 20th-century critics have been so vehement in their condemnations of this usage that a writer who uses the construction in formal style risks being accused of illiteracy or worse. Prudence requires The dogs howled as (not like) we expected them to. Like is more acceptably used as a conjunction in informal style with verbs such as feel, look, seem, sound, and taste, as in It looks like we are in for a rough winter. But here too as if is to be preferred in formal writing. There can be no objection to the use of like as a conjunction when the following verb is not expressed, as in He took to politics like a duck to water. See Usage Notes at as¹, together.

Our Living Language Along with be all and go, the construction combining be and like has become a common way of introducing quotations in informal conversation, especially among younger people: "So I'm like, 'Let's get out of here!'" As with go, this use of like can also announce a brief imitation of another person's behavior, often elaborated with facial expressions and gestures. It can also summarize a past attitude or reaction (instead of presenting direct speech). If a woman says "I'm like, 'Get lost buddy!'" she may or may not have used those actual words to tell the offending man off. In fact, she may not have said anything to him but instead may be summarizing her attitude at the time by stating what she might have said, had she chosen to speak. See Notes at all, go¹.

like ¹

Adjective

resembling

prep

1. in the manner of; similar to: she was like a child, it looks like a traffic cone

2. such as: a modern material, like carbon fibre

3. characteristic of

Adverb

1. in the manner of: cheering like mad

2. Dialect likely

conj

1. Not standard as though; as if: I don't want to make it seem like I had this bad childhood

2. in the same way that: she doesn't dance like you do

2. the like similar things: magic, supernormal powers and the like

3. the likes or like of people or things similar to (someone or something specified): the theatre was not meant for the likes of him [Old English gelīc]

USAGE: The use of like to mean such as was formerly thought to be undesirable in formal writing, but has now become acceptable. It was also thought that as rather than like should be used to mean in the same way that, but now both as and like are acceptable: they hunt and catch fish as/like their ancestors used to. The use of look like and seem like before a clause, although very common, is thought by many people to be incorrect or non-standard: it looks as though he won't come (not it looks like he won't come).
