He snubs his nose at others. это звучит нормально?
A:
@Ri-na I think there are some confusing phrases here. 😊
He is unfriendly to others = he turns up his nose at other people
To "snub (verb)" somebody = to ignore them, to 'cut them dead', etc.
"I saw him in the High Street yesterday, he completely snubbed me!"
"a snub (adjective) nose" = a short, or turned up nose
"That pig has a snub nose."
(Also, to "thumb your nose at other people" is to dismiss or insult them.)
I wouldn't say "snub my nose" at someone, but you might hear it as a mix of these other phrases.
Just remember that "snub" has several meanings. 🙂
