How to use watch in a sentence?

  1. Cheryl Seidner:

    The island is just one part of our journey, the other part of the journey is walking on the earth and knowing that it is all sacred and that we need to take care of it and watch over it.

  2. Jason Johnson:

    As entertaining as it was during the last debate -- and frankly as therapeutic it was for people, myself included -- to watch Marco engage in his old locker room glory days of trading insults and following up the next week talking about the size of Donald Trump's hands -- it's not going to get the job done, what's going to get the job done is contrasting in a presidential way with Donald Trump.

  3. Ellen DeGeneres:

    I know you got rid of your television... but at least you should watch me.

  4. Fiona Hill:

    I worked extraordinarily long days, so the last thing that I wanted to do when I went home was watch television, but I would have to go home in the evening and try to look on Fox News to see what Rudy Giuliani was saying.

  5. Angela Hernandez:

    Every day, this became my ritual, i'd walk up and down the beach looking for new high grounds, screaming' help' at the top of my lungs, and collecting water falling from the top of the cliffs. Every night, I'd find the highest point I could climb up to and find somewhere to fall asleep before the tide would rise. Every morning, I'd wake up soaked in sea mist and watch the sun rise.
