In a sentence

そとoutsideみて見てlook

Look outside!

How it works

A two-word burst with no particles — common in excited speech. そと (outside) is what to look at, and 見てみて (look) is the te-form of 見るみる (see) used on its own as a soft command, like “look!” The (object) marking そと (outside) is simply dropped.
