The object for "to look out for"
Dear Teachers,
Hello. I read a sentence in an article as follows:
"Those are things to look out for in the months ahead."
My understanding is that the expression, "to look out for," should be treated as transitive verb, thus requiring one or more objective(s).
However, I could not figure out the objective for "to look out for" in the above-mentioned sentence.
Could you help me with this sentence?
Thanks and best regards,
David Kim
