What is the difference between "turn around" and "turn about"?
I searched "turn about meaning" on Google, but it showed the meaning of "turn around" to me.

Here more weird things:
https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/turn+about
(redirected from turn about)

https://www.lexico.com/en/definition/turn
(It has the definition of "turn about" only, but it is the same definition of "turn around".)

I am all confused.

Thanks for your answer.
