2 out
❢ Out is used after many verbs in English to alter or reinforce the meaning of the verb ( hold out, wipe out, filter out etc). Very often in French, a verb alone will be used to translate these combinations. For translations you should consult the appropriate verb entry (hold, wipe, filter etc).When out is used as an adverb meaning outside, it often adds little to the sense of the phrase: they're out in the garden = they're in the garden. In such cases out will not usually be translated: ils sont dans le jardin. out is used as an adverb to mean absent or not at home. In this case she's out really means she's gone out and the French translation is elle est sortie.For the phrase out of see C in the entry below. For examples of the above and other uses, see the entry below.B adv1 ( outside) dehors ; to stand out in the rain rester (dehors) sous la pluie ; to be out in the garden être dans le jardin ; out there dehors ; out here ici ;2 ( from within) to go ou walk out sortir ; to pull/take sth out retirer/sortir qch ; I couldn't find my way out je ne trouvais pas la sortie ; ‘Out’ ( exit) ‘Sortie’ ; (get) out! dehors! ;3 (away from land, base) out in China/Australia en Chine/Australie ; two days out from port/camp à deux jours du port/camp ; when the tide is out à marée basse ; further out plus loin ;4 ( in the world at large) there are a lot of people out there looking for work il y a beaucoup de gens qui cherchent du travail en ce moment ;5 ( absent) to be out gen être sorti ; [strikers] être en grève ; while you were out pendant que tu étais sorti ; she's out shopping elle est sortie faire les courses ;6 ( in slogans) ‘Tories out!’ ‘les conservateurs dehors!’ ;7 ( for social activity) to invite sb out to dinner inviter qn au restaurant ; a day out at the seaside une journée au bord de la mer ; let's have an evening out this week si on sortait un soir de la semaine? ;8 (published, now public) to be out [book, exam results] être publié ; my secret is out mon secret est révélé ; truth will out la vérité éclatera ;11 ( extinguished) to be out [fire, light] être éteint ; lights out at 10.30 pm extinction des feux à 22 h 30 ;14 (over, finished) before the week is out avant la fin de la semaine ;15 GB ( incorrect) to be out in one's calculations s'être trompé dans ses calculs ; to be three degrees out se tromper de trois degrés ; my watch is two minutes out ( slow) ma montre retarde de deux minutes ; ( fast) ma montre avance de deux minutes ;16 ○ ( not possible) no that option is out non cette solution est exclue ;17 ○ ( actively in search of) to be out to do sth être bien décidé à faire qch ; to be out for revenge ou to get sb être bien décidé à se venger de qn ; he's just out for what he can get péj il ne rate aucune occasion ○ ;19 ○ ( in holes) trousers with the knees out pantalon troué aux genoux ;20 ○ GB ( ever) he's the kindest/stupidest person out c'est la personne la plus gentille/stupide qui soit.1 ( from) to go ou walk ou come out of the house sortir de la maison ; get out of here! sors d'ici! ; to jump out of bed/of the window sauter hors du lit/par la fenêtre ; to tear a page out of a book arracher une page d'un livre ; to take sth out of a box/of a drawer retirer qch d'une boîte/d'un tiroir ; to take sth out of one's bag/one's pocket prendre qch dans son sac/sa poche ;2 ( expressing ratio) sur ; two out of every three people deux personnes sur trois ;3 ( part of whole) a paragraph out of a book un paragraphe tiré d'un livre ; like something out of a horror movie comme quelque chose qui sort tout droit d'un film d'horreur ;6 ( free from confinement) to be out of hospital/of prison être sorti de l'hôpital/de prison ;7 ( expressing shelter) à l'abri de [sun, rain] ;9 ( made from) en [wood, plasticine, metal] ;10 ( due to) par [malice, respect etc] ;I want out ○ ! je ne marche plus avec vous/eux etc ○ ; I'm out of here ○ je me casse ◑, je pars ; go on, out with it ○ ! allez, accouche ○ !, allez, dis ce que tu as à dire ; to be on the outs ○ with sb US être brouillé avec qn ; to be out and about gen sortir ; ( after illness) être à nouveau sur pied ; to be out of it ○ être dans les vapes ○ ; to feel out of it se sentir exclu ; you're well out of it tu fais bien de ne pas t'en mêler.
