You don't look your age !!!

Hayden	Your son's just graduated from the University ? That's surprising, Mr. Brandon.
Mr. Brandon	You may not believe this but I'm already 55.
Hayden	I thought you were only 40. You don't look your age.
Mr. Brandon	I'm happy to hear that.

When someone told you" Wow, you don't look your age", you can be suspected to think of it as a compliment. But I think you don't have to look your age.

还有有上下文，要是 40 看上去像55 的，也是 you don't look your age.

说这两句就清楚了。

You look younger than your age.
or
You look young for your age.

呵呵，偶想“you don't look your age"妙就妙在有时对有些人在有些情况下不说清楚可能更好

不过象楚楚这样的童子，说话风格一贯不是黑就是白，不拐弯抹角，偶是可以理解滴

比如说找工作时自己已经超龄但是是否可以说
I do not look my age. 呢？
或者说I just look 18 years old.呢？
