SINGLE-WORD


Note: while "out of" and "outside" are prepositions, "out" by itself is not. See this list http://www.abcteach.com/abclists/prepositions.htm One can say "She went out of the house." Here "out of" is the preposition. However, if one says "She went out the house" - here "out" is a phrasal verb, not a preposition. One can also say "She went out", but "out" here is a place, not a preposition.
