Also means
to concern
Usage Note
Regarder takes a direct object with no preposition, so you watch the TV rather than looking 'at' it — a classic trap for English speakers. It also means to concern someone, as in ça ne te regarde pas (it's none of your business), and the bare regarde ! is the everyday 'look!'.
Examples
"Je regarde par la fenêtre."
Natural Translation
I'm looking out the window.
