Yes, it does)
Uly, твой перевод неплох, и всё же высший пилотаж , как мне кажется, избегать слова «выглядит» в подобных предложениях.
We can perfectly use 'выглядит' if the speaker is observing the place or showing/describing it to someone. However, if the speaker just talking about the place in general, then 'выглядит' can be skipped.
If he says LOOKS, he’s looking at it.
Three girls got a flat tire. They had to pull over. One of their phones dies, two other have no service. They're stuck in the car in the middle of nowhere. One of the girls says what I posted as the question.
I don’t understand, obviously the girl LOOKED out of the car and based on what they saw, concluded that they must be in a dangerous place because it LOOKED dangerous, no?
I started doubting my reasoning and looked up место выглядит/место выглядело both in Google books ngram viewer and нац. корпус русского языка - just a few hits. I'm not saying it doesn't exist - I just wanted to point out that there are some better options when it comes to the translation of "the place looked", especially when it's followed by some counterparts of опасно.
I feel like Russians tend to leave выглядит off in many cases. Instead of saying место выглядит шикарно/красиво/неприглядно/жутко, they'll say (кажется/вроде) место шикарное/красивое/непринлядное/жуткое, even though that may sound too categorical. Again, all that doesn't mean место выглядит is incorrect. 😉
Oh, I see what you mean.
🤩👍
with or without - both work.
