4叶三叶草 Four leaf clover song.

Hi everyone,

Today we are talking about some special words and then going to listen to a song to help you remember them

“to look over” = to quickly read something without detail.

eg When you hire a car at the airport,they give you a contract to sign.You “look over” it and sign it – hardly anybody would read everyline of it.

“to overlook”  – this means NOT to take notice of something.

In the above example,when hiring a car,you could ” overlook” the fact that you must fill the car with petrol before returning it,and bring the car back with an empty tank,and have to pay a lot more than normal for the petrol.

Other “looking” words – look under,look over,look around.

Then there is “to see over” – meaning looking over a fence,for example.

“oversee” – means to supervise eg The engineer had to oversee the building of the new roads.

 

Well – in English, a 4 leaf clover means GOOD LUCK – and the song about it reminds you of the use of “look over” and “overlook”.Watch the song and words here
