Watch, Look, See​

Example of Mistakes:

Ginfreely : Stop watching my airport breasts
Ginfreely : I see porn everyday.
Ginfreely : I don’t play cocks, but I look at them playing every day.

Tip: “See,” “look” and “watch” are often confused in meaning. However, they should be used in different situations. The difference between the three verbs can be explained in the following way:

• Look — to look at something directly.
• See — to see something that comes into our sight that we weren’t looking for.
• Watch — to look at something carefully, usually at something that’s moving.

So, we can “see” something even if we don’t want to, but we can only “look at” something on purpose.

Correction:

Ginfreely: Stop looking at my airport breasts
Ginfreely : I watch porn everyday.
Ginfreely : I don’t play cocks, but I see them playing every day.
