OUTGIVE Meaning and
Definition
-
"Outgive" is a transitive verb that is used to describe an act of giving or bestowing something, typically in a generous or selfless manner, to a greater extent or surpassing others. It is composed of two parts: "out" which signifies exceeding or surpassing, and "give" which refers to the action of voluntarily offering something to someone.
In a literal sense, "outgive" can pertain to the act of surpassing others in terms of the quantity or quality of material possessions, gifts, or donations provided. It implies going above and beyond the expected or average level of generosity. For example, if John donates more money to a charity than anyone else in his community, he is said to "outgive" others in the context of philanthropy.
Metaphorically, "outgive" can extend beyond the realm of material possessions and include acts of emotional support, kindness, or compassion. It implies a willingness to give more of oneself, whether it be time, understanding, or empathy, in order to benefit or assist others. For instance, if a friend supports someone going through a difficult time by constantly being there for them and providing unwavering emotional support, they can be viewed as "outgiving" others in terms of their compassion and understanding.
Overall, "outgive" encapsulates the notion of surpassing expectations and going the extra mile when it comes to giving, either materially or emotionally, with a selfless and generous spirit.
Common Misspellings for OUTGIVE
Etymology of OUTGIVE
The word "outgive" is derived from the combination of two English words: "out" and "give".
The word "out" originates from Old English "ūt", which referred to the sense of being outside or beyond. Over time, it evolved to represent the idea of surpassing, excelling, or being in advance of something or someone.
Meanwhile, the word "give" originates from Old English "giefan", which meant to bestow, present, or hand over something to someone. It is closely related to the Old Norse word "gefa" and the Gothic word "giban".
When the two words are combined, "outgive" takes on the meaning of giving in a manner that surpasses expectations, exceeding the generosity of others, or giving more than what is required or anticipated.
