iskáti to look for, to search for; to seek, to try to find

iščem besedo v slovarju I am looking a word up (ali looking up a word) in the dictionary
iščem izhod I am looking for a (ali the) way out
povsod sem iskal pomoč arhaično I have sought help on every hand, pogovorno I've tried everywhere
rastline vedno iščejo sonce plants always turn towards the sun
moja žena išče pomočnico my wife is on the lookout for a servant
trgovec išče sposobnega pomočnika shopkeeper seeks capable assistant (ZDA clerk)
iskáti vodo, rudo z bajalico to dowse, to search for water with a divining rod
saj je iskal to (hotel tako)! he was asking for it!
tu nimaš kaj iskáti! you have no business here!
vsepovsod iskáti to search high and low (for something); (v oglasih)
iščem, iščemo, išče se... wanted...
