--description--

When you want to know about someone's character or personality, you can ask, What is (he/she) like? or What are they like?. These questions are about the qualities of a person, not about their physical appearance.

For example, imagine you meet a new student in your programming class and you want to know more about her. You can ask a classmate What is she like?

You are not asking if the new student likes computers or games; you are asking about her personality. Maybe she's friendly, smart, or really good at coding.
