LOOK, SEE, WATCH

Look, see and Watch are verbs that we use to talk about our sense of sight- using our eyes.
But They have important differences in meaning.

When we look, we try to see. We make a special effort. We concentrate our eyes on
something.

 Look! It´s snowing!

 Look at this photo! Isn´t it beautiful?
 I´m looking but I don´t see it.

We use see to mean simply that an image comes into our eyes, it may not be deliberate. As
soon as we open our eyes, we see things.

 I can see a cloud in the sky.

 I suddenly saw a bird fly in front of me.
 Didn´t you see Ram? He was waving at you.

With the verb Watch, we are much more active. Watch is like look, but requires more effort
from us. We Watch things that are going to move or change in some way. And we Watch
the movements and changes.

 The police decided to Watch the suspected murderer rather than arrest him
immediately. They hoped he would lead them to the body.
 I like watching motor Racing on tv
 If you Watch that egg for long enough you´ll see it Hatch.

 You can´t see far in this fog.

 Denny and Phil look Good tonight.
 Did you Watch Coronation Street yesterday evening?
 Watch out for pickpockets.
 Can you see the blue car on the left?
 Look you tomorrow, if nothing comes in between.
 It looks like rain, doesn´t it?
  Oh yes, I see what you mean.
 Hey, what´s wrong? You really look unhappy.
 I´m afraid, Linda has to see the doctor.

 Can you repeat, please? I didn´t hear you

 Can you count to one hundred in English?
 Know at the exercise on page 21.
 Do you know the answer to number 3?
 Listen to the conversation
 Could you move, please? I can´t touch the board.
