Your question it´s a bit complicate. The answer of Enrique is very good but we use "como" in many more diferent means Como = Like You are like a child = Eres como un niño. It´s the first person of the verb to eat. I eat oranges = yo como naranjas it´s used as "if" in conditional sentences If you don´t chage you´re going to loose all your friends = Como no cambies vas a perder todos tus amigos I´m sure that "como" has more means, but it´s dificult to me to explain in english. Also there are many diferences between tradicional spanish and latin spanish. I hope I have helped you, sorry for my bad english, i´m just learning

Hi, there are two como`s in spanish: One is used on affirmative statements, and the other is used in questions. I`ll tell you the difference between those two. The afirmative "como" is used when you`re giving details about something: it means "Such as". Example: There were many animals at the zoo, such as birds, snakes and tigers. Habia muchos animales en el zoologico, como, pàjaros, viboras y tigres. And the other one has an accent "còmo": it means "how": Example: How did you get here so fast? ¿Còmo llegaste aquì tan ràpido? I think you were looking for the first example, but there is the difference anyways. And please tell me if i have a mistake, im also learning your language xD. Cheers from Mèxico.

Enrique's answer is the best. We have three word 'como' = verb=to eat; 'como'=Adverb=like and finally Cómo?=Interrogative adv.=How I hope that this answer will be useful to you

Estas dos sílabas o palabras, las puedes usar en oraciones interrogativas, exclamativas y afirmativas, casi siempre tienen una connotación diferente, pero algunas veces las expresamos para decir lo mismo, por ejemplo: - ¿Cómo vas a usar el computador? - ¿De qué manera vas a usar el computador? - ¿Qué puedo hacer? - ¿Cómo lo puedo hacer? - ¿Cómo como ( del verbo comer) el sushi? * - Creo que lo sé - Quiero que me lo dé - Tu puedes hacerlo como quieras y como puedas - ¡Como se parece la niña a su mamá !
