Basic English – How and when to use LOOK, SEE, and WATCH
source: Learn English with Gill 2016年3月4日
The words 'look', 'see', and 'watch' all seem to mean the same thing, so how do you decide which one to use? Today you'll learn how to use these words correctly! Native English speakers know when to use these words. But it can be difficult for English learners to understand the difference. For example, you can WATCH English lessons on engVid, LOOK for the quiz under each video, and SEE your score once you've completed it. I'll teach you the basic principle of when to use each one of these words and show you many examples, so that you can be sure that you are using them correctly. You'll also sharpen your comprehension skills by practicing looking at the context of sentences -- one of the keys to learning new vocabulary. Think you've mastered it?
