| Phrase | out of it |
| Text | The phrase "out of it," in this podcast, means unaware of what is happening around oneself, often because one is thinking about something else: "Betty seemed out of it during the interview." The phrase "out of (something)" means without anything left because it has all been used: "We're out of mustard and bananas. Please add them to the grocery shopping list." The phrase "out of order" means not working properly when a machine is broken: "Three of the four toilets are out of order." The phrase "out of sight" describes something one cannot see because it is too far away or hidden: "They watched the boat pull away until it was out of sight." Finally, the phrase "out of sight, out of mind," means that something is forgotten if it isn't seen: "If you don't have cookies in your kitchen, you won't want to eat them. Out of sight, out of mind." |
