Gaze means to look at something or someone intently and continuously, often with wonder, admiration, or deep thought. Unlike a quick glance, a gaze is prolonged and focused. As a noun, it refers to a steady, intense look.

Gaze 意味着专注而持续地看某物或某人，通常带着惊奇、钦佩或深思。与匆匆一瞥不同，凝视是持久而专注的。作为名词，它指稳定、强烈的目光。

Gaze significa mirar algo o alguien de forma intensa y continua, a menudo con asombro, admiración o reflexión profunda. A diferencia de una mirada rápida, una gaze es prolongada y concentrada. Como sustantivo, se refiere a una mirada fija e intensa.

Gazeは、驚き、賞賛、または深い思索を込めて、何かまたは誰かを集中して継続的に見ることを意味します。ちらっと見ることとは異なり、gazeは長く集中したものです。名詞として、安定した強い視線を指します。

gaze는 경이, 감탄, 또는 깊은 생각에 잠겨 무언가나 누군가를 지속적으로 집중하여 바라보는 것을 의미합니다. 순간적인 시선과 달리 응시는 길고 집중된 것입니다. 명사로는 꾸준하고 강렬한 시선을 뜻합니다.
