    In American English, "went looking" is probably better.

              No, groups that include a member that is masculine animate use -li. It becomes more involved for other types of groups and in Czech it is explained at http://prirucka.ujc.cas.cz/?id=601 In English you will find the main points in textbooks and the basics also in our Tips and notes.
