As a non-native speaker, I might have been unaware of the subtle shades of =
meaning of the word =93careful=94 (although even after consulting two dicti=
onaries, I'm not convinced there is a clear distinction between the two).

In any case, taken in context, Robin's example seems more like an exhortati=
on to handle the toy with care, since watching out isn't likely to help =96=
 if it does spring back, there won't be enough time to react.
