Los tres verbos reflejan tres conceptos muy distintos. To see hace referencia a la capacidad visual y no es fruto de una acción deliberada. A menudo se usa con can o could: I can see the mountains from my bedroom. Puedo ver las montañas desde mi dormitorio.
To look at implica una acción deliberada: I saw an old atlas, so I opened it and looked at the maps. Vi un atlas antiguo, así que lo abrí y miré los mapas.
To watch también se refiere a una acción deliberada, a menudo cuando se tiene un interés especial por lo que ocurre: I watched the planes in the sky with great interest. Miraba los aviones en el cielo con gran interés. Igualmente puede indicar el paso del tiempo (we watched the animals playing for half an hour, durante media hora observamos cómo jugaban los animales), movimiento (they stood there watching the cars drive off into the distance, se quedaron allí de pie viendo cómo se marchaban los coches) o vigilancia (the policemen have been watching this house because they thought we were thieves, los policías estaban vigilando la casa porque pensaban que éramos ladrones).
Para hablar de películas u obras de teatro usamos to see: Have you seen Hamlet?, ¿Has visto Hamlet? To watch se refiere a la televisión y los deportes en general: I always watch the television in the evening. Siempre veo la televisión por las noches. I like to watch football. Me gusta ver el fútbol. Al hablar de programas o partidos específicos podemos usar tanto to watch como to see: I like to see/watch the news at 9:00. Me gusta ver las noticias a las 9.00. Did you see/watch the match last night?, ¿Viste el partido anoche?

Глаголу хватать соответствуют синонимы catch, seize, grasp, grip, snatch, clutch и grab. Catch имеет значение 'схватывать, схватить, ловить, поймать': she couldn't catch the ball; he caught me by the sleeve. Seize означает 'перехватить, схватить силой' (сломив сопротивление): to seize a running horse. Grasp – 'схватить, сжать в руках': he grasped my hand and shook it heartily; the hungry man greedily grasped the bread. Grip – 'схватить, крепко зажать, стиснуть' (обычно имеет в виду действие, вызванное гневом, страхом и т. д.): the frightened child gripped its mother's arm. Snatch означает 'хватать, вырывать, выхватывать' (часто неожиданно для окружающих): to snatch a book from under one's nose. Clutch имеет значение 'крепко, цепко схватить, ухватиться за' (часто в отчаянии): he clutched (at) the rope we threw to him. Grab имеет в виду резкое, порывистое движение, насильственный (часто незаконный) захват: he grabbed the money from the table; the dog grabbed the bone and ran off with it. Catch, seize, grasp, grip и snatch могут употребляться метафорически. Catch означает 'приобрести, получить': схватить простуду – to catch (a) cold, а также 'уловить сказанное': I didn't quite catch what you said. Seize и grasp имеют значение 'понять, ухватить': to seize the idea, to grasp a person's meaning. Seize означает также 'захватить, овладеть': захватить власть – to seize power, захватить в свои руки контроль над чем-л. – to seize control over something.
