The phrase "has out" does not have a distinct etymology as it is a combination of two separate words: "has" and "out".
"Has" is the third-person singular present tense form of the verb "have". It originated from the Old English word "habban" which meant "to hold, to possess". Over time, it evolved into "has" in Middle English, retaining the same meaning of possessing or holding something.
"Out" is a Middle English word that came from the Old English word "ūt", which ultimately traces back to the Proto-Germanic word "*ūt". It refers to the act of moving away from, departing, or being outside of a particular location or condition.
When combined, "has out" suggests that someone or something holds or possesses something that is "out" in some way, which could mean expressing something openly, making something known, or revealing something.
