用法与细微差别

'Gawk' is informal and often has a negative or embarrassing feeling. It usually describes staring in a foolish, rude, or overly curious way at people or things. Common mistake: don't confuse with 'glance' (quick look) or 'gaze' (look steadily, often with admiration). Often used in the past tense: 'gawked at'.
