it seems good or likely to be successful/suitable · it has potential
You're browsing in a store or online and you spot an item that catches your eye. ✨ It's not just 'okay,' but it has potential to be exactly what you need or even better! Use this to express cautious optimism before making a decision. 🤔
💡 This versatile phrase isn't just for shopping! You can use it in many situations: for a job interview ('The interview looks promising.'), a new project ('This new strategy looks promising.'), or even a weather forecast ('The weekend weather looks promising!'). It signals a positive outlook but leaves room for further evaluation. 👍
When would you most appropriately use 'It looks promising'? A. 😩 You've just received a broken item that you ordered online. B. 🤔 You're trying on a jacket that fits well and seems like a good style for you. C. 🥳 You've found a $1 on the ground and you're celebrating.
