"上海的天气怎么样？"

Translation: What's the weather like in Shanghai?

[AmyLee489653]

"What is Shanghai's weather like?" should be acceptable.

[ArtBurnap]

Yeah, or "What is the weather in Shanghai like?" Reported

[mendosi]

Or "what is the weather like in Shanghai?"

[Hsn626796]

That would be an inquiry about a typical weather.

Not questioning the current weather.

上海的天气像什么？

[CinnamonTe1]

Is Duo's Chinese question asking what the weather is like in general or at the current moment?

"What is the weather like in California?" - Typically warm and sunny.
"How is the weather in California?" - It's been raining the past few days.

Those can be two different questions in English. How is the Chinese question supposed to be answered ?

[Elaine1950]

Is there a difference between "what" and " how" is the weather?

[rcc0002]

"How is Shanghai's weather"
"How is Shanghaiese weather"
And "How is Shanghai weather" are all better translations considering there is no 在

[Swansae]

Maybe literally speaking, but those all sound a bit awkward in English. We don't say "How is Chinese weather"...

[aizixin]

What is the weather like

[bugwine]

"What's the weather like in Shanghai" is also an acceptable answer

[RuciGluci]

"what is the weather in Shanghai like?"

[Elaine1950]

What is the weather in Shanghai should be accepted.

[Carmen_Yomisma]

Is there something in the Chinese question that indicates if the question is about the general weather = climate, or what the weather forecast said for some indeterminate timepoint? I mean, 今天上海的天气怎么样？would be correct for asking for the weather today in Shanghai?
