    LOOK OUT OF THE WINDOW LOOK THROUGH THE WINDOW

    Hmm ... thats interesting I would say "Look out of the window" means you are inside the room looking out and "Look through the window" means you are outside looking in What do people reckon?
    Not always, but I agree, there is a tendency to use "look through the window" that way. And obviously "look out of the window" means you're inside. Look out the window requires that you be inside, but Look through the window doesn't require that you be outside..but it is somewhat implied.

    I must disagree. As I understand it, the situation is that there is a billboard in a public space with a cutout through which the public is invited to look. At least in the US, I believe most would say "look through" because you are, in essence, looking through a hole. To "look out" a window assumes you are indoors looking at the outdoors. And "Look through the window" usually means you are outside looking in. I don't think this is a BrE AmE thing other than the subtle 'of' in 'look out the window'.

    But if you are in a car or in a house or in another kind of building, you normally say "look out the window" in AmEng.
