Great, Deans :) - cogumela, Sep 30, 2011

Answer 2

Deanki's answer is the only that seems correct to me.

If you want to sound more natural, we usually say:

Tiene cara de argentina

or:

Parece una argentina.

Hands down, my choices. Of course, since Laura is an educated native speaker, one would expect no less. - samdie, Sep 30, 2011

I doubt that Laura is here for "points" but this is the answer that you should "accept". You will never get a better one. - samdie, Sep 30, 2011

Answer 3

I think both versions are missing that "of" = "de"

Su cara es como **de **una argentina.

Her face is like **of **an Argentinian.

Answer 4

That sounds fine. You could also say "Tiene cara de una argentinia."

I wonder if some people would say "rasgo" (facial features) instead of "cara."

No, it doesn't, Mariana. - cogumela, Sep 30, 2011

Either "Tiene cara de argentina" or " Tiene la cara de una argentinia." - 00e657d4, Sep 30, 2011
