look (at)
Look:注視,專注看(強調專注);常常還用來提醒對方注意某個細節。例如:
- Look! It's snowing!
- 快看啊!下雪了!
- Look at this photo! Isn't it beautiful?
- 快看這個照片,很漂亮不是嗎?
- I'm looking but I don't see it.
- 我在努力瞧,就是看不見它啊。
When we use look with an object, we say look + at + object
Look後要跟賓語,後面加at就可以了。
例如:
- John looked at Mary.
- 約翰注視了瑪麗。
see
See:看見,看到(強調結果);詳解:表示某個事物已映入眼簾,或許都不需思考,睜眼就可見。
例如:
- I can see a cloud in the sky.
- 我可以看見天上的雲朵。

- 我突然看見一隻鳥從我面前飛過。
- Didn't you see Ram? He was waving at you.
- 你看見Ram了嗎?他剛在向你揮手。
watch
Watch:觀看,觀察;詳解:需要主動積極看,看的東西往往是要移動或改變的,而不是一直靜止的事物。

watch or see for movies, concerts, TV etc?
Watch或see都可搭配電影,音樂會,電視等對象嗎?
In general, we use see forpublic performances and watch for television at home.
通常,我們用see搭配公開的表演,用watch表達在家看電視。
例如:
