Phrase | out with it |
Text | In this podcast, the phrase "out with it" is used to ask someone to say what he or she wants to say directly, without delaying or hiding anything: "Why is it so hard for you to come out with it and say what you want?" The phrase "to be out of it" means to be confused or distracted and to not understand or be aware of what is happening around oneself: "Could you please repeat the question? I was out of it and didn't hear you." The phrase "to be out to do (something)" means to plan or intend to do something: "It seems like the boss is out to fire Percy." Finally, the phrase "out there" is used to describe some other place, not here: "Tammy knows her true love is out there somewhere, waiting for her." |
