  1. Outscold is a verb that typically means to reprimand, scold, or berate someone in a more forceful or extended manner than the usual or expected. It involves expressing strong disapproval or criticism towards someone's actions, behavior, or words. When outscolding, one may raise their voice or use harsh and punitive language to convey their dissatisfaction with the person being scolded.

    The term "outscold" emphasizes the intensity, duration, or severity of the scolding compared to what is considered normal or conventional.

Outscolding can occur in various settings, such as educational institutions, workplaces, households, or any situation where authority figures or individuals deem it necessary to discipline or correct someone's actions.
