bỏ qua
/ˌəʊvəˈlʊk//ˌəʊvərˈlʊk/The word "overlook" has Old English roots, stemming from the combination of "over" and "locan," meaning "to close, shut, or lock." Initially, "overlook" meant to "look over" or "pass by without noticing," implying a sense of ignoring or neglecting. Over time, the meaning evolved to encompass a "view from above" or "a position that affords a good view." This shift highlights the concept of looking down upon something, leading to its contemporary meaning of "fail to notice" or "miss an opportunity."
