上班路上,看手機
吃飯陷入尬聊,看手機
蹲廁所,看手機
那么,問題來了
"看手機"的"看",
是see,look還是watch?
都不對!為什么?
首先我們來區(qū)分一下這幾個“看”
See means to notice or become aware of (someone or something) by using your eyes.
See的意思是用眼睛注意到或意識到(某人或某物)。
For example:
I saw you waving at me.
我看見你朝我揮手。
I see a ship on the horizon.
我看見地平線上有一艘輪船。
Of note, to see can also mean to understand (e.g., I see what you mean).
注意，see也可以表示理解(比方說，我知道你說的是什么意思了。)
The verb to look means to deliberately apply the ability to see. In other words, it means to make a conscious effort to see something. To look is usually followed by at or for.
動詞“look”的意思是有意識地運用“see”的能力。換句話說，它的意思是付出努力或注意力的去看某物。一般后邊跟at或者for。
For example:
Look at the beading on her wedding dress.
看她結(jié)婚禮服上的珠飾。
I am looking for my car keys.
我在找我的車鑰匙。(需要用眼睛看著找)。
Watch means to look at (someone or something) for an amount of time and pay attention to what is happening.
watch的意思是看(某人或某事)一段時間，注意正在發(fā)生的事情
For example:
The policemen watched their suspect for half an hour.
警察看(管)著他們的嫌疑犯半小時了。
I watch the news every morning before work.
我每天早晨上班前都會看新聞。
?see更側(cè)重于我沒眼睛有沒有看東西的能力，可不可以看到東西
?look則是視線上的注目的“看”
?watch區(qū)別更大些，可以理解為“觀看”，需要看一段時間
但是你細想一下
我們說的“看”手機
真的就只是“看”著么?
“看”手機是以下幾種情況
01. see the phone
=看到手機(本身)
比如
Have you seen my phone ?
你看到我的手機了嗎?
02. look the phone
=把目光放到手機上,快看那個手機
(一般是說look at)
用來引起別人的注意
比如
Look at the phone! It has a foldable screen.
快看那個手機，居然是折疊屏的!
03. watch the phone
是錯的!沒有這種說法!
因為
watch其實表示看"有移動或變化的東西"
比如
watch the clock=看表
(表針是移動的)
watch TV=看電視
(電視里的畫面是動態(tài)的)
你可以說 check the phone ，表達下意識的查看手機,有沒有新消息~
或者你也可以說，look through the phone，look through 意為查看，翻閱，look through the phone 就是翻看手機。
舉個栗子~
Don't check / look through your phone at the dinner table.
別老在吃飯的時候看手機。
