A pro-Palestine Jewish activist group has had its bank account frozen in Germany for the second time in seven years, after the bank requested a full list of its members’ details in what experts believe is a breach of German law. The group suspects the move was triggered by its involvement in a forthcoming pro-Palestine conference that has attracted intense scorn from the German mainstream.
Look and see mean roughly the same thing. Overlook and oversee have opposite meanings. Then there is oversight…
Such a weird language.
Overlook and oversee can have the same meaning. It depends on the context and the intent of the speaker.
It’s Latin, Greek, Germanic, and a whole bunch of other shit just thrown into a pot. Raise to boil, let simmer, and season with regional slang no one fucking understands to your tasting.
The best way I like reminding myself of this is by thinking of the words “noir” and “choir”.
