In English, we sometimes emphasize the perfective aspect of
perception with semantic games: "You're looking at it, but you don't see
it," or, "You saw it, but you didn't look at it."

To my mind, "see" is viewing with comprehension, while "look" does not imply any recognition (although it may be present).
As far as I know, we only have {legh} and perhaps {tu'} to work with ... {nej} and {Sam} have different meanings entirely.
