| Phrase | to take (something) outside |
| Text | The phrase "to take (someone) outside," in this podcast, means to leave a bar or another room so that two or more people can fight and/or have a loud disagreement outdoors, away from other people: "If your discussion doesn't involve any of the other meeting participants, please take it outside." The phrase "outside of" means apart from, or excluding: "Outside of my parents, you're the person who knows me best." The phrase "outside perspective" is used to describe the viewpoint of someone who isn't directly involved in something and can provide a fair, unbiased opinion: "They realized they would never solve the problem on their own, so they got a mediator who could give them an outside perspective." Finally, the phrase "outside interests" refers to the things one likes that are not related to one's job: "He's a software engineer, but his outside interests include painting and snowboarding." |
