Got a letter from my lady yesturday and she was describing a picture I sent. She said she did not know the word in English but she felt "ты выглядишь классно, супер!!!" I ran this through Prompt and no luck. Can anybody translate it for me?

Thanks!

How old is your lady?

It is a teenage slang for "You look very good".

Thanks

If the phrase is gender neutral, I would like to know how to say it phonetically. Would this be a nice thing to say to my girlfriend when I see her for the first time in Moscow next week?

I always have to change fonts to read things

My transliteration is:
"Ty (tee) vyglyadish (voog-lee-ah-dee'sh) klassno, super!"

Its gender neutral and it is literally "You look classy, super!"

Right native Russian speakers???



*the phrases in ( ) are my English phonetic equivalents.

I would say more like "cool" rather than "classy." That's why it's kind of slangy.
