information about it are you ready to
talk about the first way yes alright i
want to know what do you see you right
now
what do i see right now so what do you
see right now right now i can see a
camera and all my friends out there oh
we can see you actually I don’t
oh I see you I see some nice curtains
that I chose about two years ago okay I
see a cat you see a cat okay great what
are some things that you see in the
morning what’s the first thing you see
when you wake up the first thing I see
is probably the curtains really marker
yeah I don’t know I just look I look at
the curtains wake up so yeah obviously
we’re talking about the most basic way
to use see literally looking at
something seeing something yes you see
something with your eyes and here we’re
talking about I see something yesterday
I saw my friend you can use this in
different ways different verb tenses I
see something
I saw something this is the most basic
way but let’s take it up to the next
level with the second meaning the second
way to use see is often used in a full
expression but it can be cut short as
well so you could say oh I see what you
mean or you could simply say I see yeah
I see and what does this mean yeah in
this sense it means to understand right
so somebody might be saying a
complicated story
and telling you how they feel such as
yeah I went I went to
school yesterday and I got an F on the
test and I felt really terrible oh I see
what you mean
yeah so it’s understanding it’s kind of
a filler expression so instead of saying
oh yeah oh that must have been hard
oh yeah oh I’m sorry oh I see what you
mean you can say I see what you mean I
see what you mean or I see so you’re
telling the other person I see the same
way that you see so my mind is thinking
about the same thing that your mind is
thinking about and another time you
might say this is if somebody is telling
you instructions so they might be I’m
talking about you know maybe they’re
telling you how to do a math problem
they’re saying yeah first you take the
square root of x and then W Y Z W X Y Z
W yes and then say I see it just means I
understand so this is maybe a little
more advanced way to use filler
expressions because a lot of people just
say uh-huh yeah okay oh yeah all right
but you can say I see I see
oh you mean and it means you’re agreeing
you understand and it’s kind of a
beautiful fluency expression say oh I
see what you mean I see what you mean
yeah yeah let’s talk about a third way
the third way to use SI is often used in
a business situation so I want to know
Dan do you oversee anyone right now
I do not oversee anyone but when I used
to be a manager at the coffee shop I
oversaw my employees so it basically
just means that you’re watching over
them you’re making sure they’re doing
the right thing yeah it’s kind of you
know and you might do this with a child
too you have to oversee your your kids
sure I think it’s most likely used in a
business situation so if you’re a
manager if you’re a boss if you’re the
head of a department you could say I
oversee fifteen people in my division
yeah I oversee this many people so we
would only use this in a work place for
the maximization yeah usually in casual
conversation you don’t use it in other
situation I mean you could use it in a
general way too and in that in that way
you say oversight oh and how would you
use that so you could say I think we
need some oversight in this area of the
business and that means it means that
you need somebody there to watch what’s
going on and making sure that everything
is being done correctly so we need some
oversight we need someone to oversee
this area of our business so you can use
it as a noun we need some oversight or
we need to oversee so we have the verb
and the noun some oversight and oversee
the manager needs to oversee the area
because we need some oversight there’s
your complete sentence for this deep
word oversee and as you saw dan used the
past tense over saw when he was talking
about it so feel free to conjugate this
verb for the present and for the past in
any way just like a regular verb and now
it’s your turn to use see yes let us
know in the comments what are three
things you saw yesterday Oh
so you get a chance to use the word see
but in the past tense s.a.w I saw these
three things let us know in the comments

possible and if you enjoyed today’s
