We use seeing to mean perceiving all the time. Seeing him, he moved faster I look forward to seeing you

I look forward to meeting you
I'm looking forward to dogsledding this winter
Each of these sentences are acceptable, and use a gerund (verbal noun) You can't use other forms of the verb after the preposition to, you can't say I'm looking forward to see you I'm looking forward to saw you.
However, i'm seeing two interpretations which are perfectly acceptable in correct english These may not match the originally intent in the argument, but they're acceptable Firstly, see can mean to determine something I'll see who's at the door, and i'll see whether they're here about the car. now consider the following exchange:
It felt really nice seeing all the things fall together into place
Vs it felt really nice to see all the things fall together into place On seeing that the robber was walking at his direction slowly, he turned around, and ran for his dear life Seeing that the robber was walking at his direction slowly, he turned around, and ra. Right now i am looking at the board
I see/am seeing some words on the board Would you possibly readily or simply tell me which one But then why do you only see / are you only seeing them a couple of times a month Would you see this as a fixed thing and use simple present, or see it as a temporary situation and use the present continuous?
Idiomatically, what do you see
Can also be taken to mean what are you capable of seeing (as a human being, what do you see?) the answer could be the wavelengths of light observable by the human eye. If you start saying i am seeing instead of i can see, people will notice you're talking like a foreigner I can't explain how it works grammatically, but chandler's use of the continuous here serves to convey the question
Do you the same thing i see? see here for a similar use of see in the present continuous. Can someone explain to me, the difference between seeing and on seeing On seeing him, he moved faster
