"See" is to notice someone or something in sight. E.g = He can't see a thing without his glasses. "Look" is to direct your eyes to something or someone, so you can see it (or them). E.g = I'm looking, but I can't see it. Seeing is just what is in sight, while looking is with the intention to see/spot something or someone. I hope it makes sense?!?! Have a great week!

"to see" is normally used when you take a look quickly ignoring details, in other cases it means "to meat" like :it's good to see you again" "to look" is to see something with details and more especific. also "look" is used when you mean "to see other people" -Look at those guys -Don't look at me like that -Don't look back after your breakup now with see: -See the clouds -Can't you see we're in trouble? -I'm glad to see you(You're not saying "look" because You're not looking at the other person very slowly) i hope this helps, if you want to talk just send me a message :)
