Hey guys, I recently came across a sentence from a book that says "I'm looking forwarding to traveling with you."
AFAIK, forward in 'Look forward to' is adjective and cannot be forwarding.
So I'm suspecting that this is a typo.
Could anyone confirm this? Or could it be a rare use case that I haven't seen before?
Looking forwarding to ~ing???

Re: Looking forwarding to ~ing???
You are right.
“I am looking forwarding to…” is not English.
Normally it should be:
“I am looking forward to…”
“I am looking forwarding to…” is not English.
Normally it should be:
“I am looking forward to…”
