A pro-Palestine Jewish activist group has had its bank account frozen in Germany for the second time in seven years, after the bank requested a full list of its members’ details in what experts believe is a breach of German law.

Look and see mean roughly the same thing. Overlook and oversee have opposite meanings. Then there is oversight…
Such a weird language.
It’s Latin, Greek, Germanic, and a whole bunch of other shit just thrown into a pot. Raise to boil, let simmer, and season with regional slang no one fucking understands to your tasting.

Overlook and oversee can have the same meaning. It depends on the context and the intent of the speaker.
