Look out the window or Look out of the window

Is it "to look/gaze out the window" or "to look/gaze out of the window"?

Thank you

Both the version with 'of' and the one without 'of' are OK. Around 1970 the preference changed from with 'of' to without 'of'. t1%3B%2Clook%20out%20of%20the%20window%3B%2Cc0 CJ
