Oh.. it's interesting to hear that you don't use the phrase "look on".
Then how should I take it? I shouldn't use it or should use it in specific contexts? Actually they are from my dictionary's example; I hearing that you don't use it, it is just one of those awkward expressions only used in some dictionaries?

Well, there are hundreds of idiomatic phrases and expressions that I don’t use. I’m sure many people use it, though I don’t hear it too often where I live. The only reason I mentioned that I don’t use it is that you asked.
