A: @Korean_EngLearner alike = 같아. Alike = similar to each other (similar = 비슷하다)

A: It means "the same" and you use it when comparing two or more things that are the same as each other.

For example:
"The twins looked exactly alike"
"He couldn't remember which way to go as both paths looked alike"

A: ex, we both have brown hair so we look alike

A: it means similar

A: Similar – means that two or more things or people are not identical (not exactly the same), but are almost the same

”My sister and I look similar, but she is taller than me.”

”Our cars are very similar, but they are not the same model and year.”

Alike – means that two or more things are identical or almost exactly the same

”Our cars are exactly alike, we bought the same model.”

A: "Alike" (adjective) means "the same" when "same" is a noun.

Ex: The two cars are not the same. - The two cars are not alike.
Your first and second draft were the same. - Your first and second draft were alike.

"Alike" can be slightly different because it has the meaning of "similar" more so than "the same." In the second example, the first sentence meant that there was no difference between the first and second draft, whereas the second sentence meant that there could have been differences, but it was similar to the first draft.

A: Like can indicate pretty much any degree of similarity.
Alike is used when a high degree of similarity is being described.

Like is used when one person, or one set of persons, or any ONE entity, is being compared to someone or something.

Alike is used when two or more persons or things are being compared to one another.

Thus "is" can never be used with alike: it's always "are."

For example, John and Peter are brothers. John is a lot like Peter. John and Peter are alike.
