زمینه فرهنگی
It is very common to point with the index finger while saying 'Look!'. It is considered helpful and direct. Pointing at people while saying 'Look!' (Mite!) is considered very rude. Use a flat hand gesture instead. In a queue (line), saying 'Look!' to someone cutting in can be a polite but firm way to start a confrontation. Pointing with the feet is a major taboo. If you say 'Look!' and point with your foot, it is a grave insult.
Use your hands
In English, 'Look!' is almost always more effective if you point at the object you want the person to see.
Don't over-use 'Look' in arguments
Starting every sentence with 'Look...' can make you sound impatient or rude to native speakers.
