    見掛ける: notice. The Japanese verb '見掛ける (みかける)' means 'to notice' or 'to catch sight of'. It is used when you happen to see or notice something or someone, often by chance. This verb implies that the action of seeing is not intentional or planned, but rather incidental. For example: I noticed a strange man on the street「変な男を道で見掛けた」(へんなおとこをみちでみかけた). She noticed a rare bird in the park「彼女は公園で珍しい鳥を見掛けた」(かのじょはこうえんでめずらしいとりをみかけた). The verb can also be used to describe seeing someone or something frequently, as in 'I often notice him at the library'「彼を図書館でよく見掛ける」(かれをとしょかんでよくみかける).
