טעות נפוצה:
Learners sometimes write *"right out"* instead of *"outright"*. Also, they may put *outright* in the wrong place in the sentence. It usually comes after the verb (*"reject outright"*) or after the object (*"reject the offer outright"*), not before the verb in this sense.
משמעות
completely; with no limitation

טעות נפוצה:
Learners may confuse this sense with the 'completely' sense and place *outright* before a noun (e.g. *"an outright say"*), which is incorrect. In this meaning, *outright* modifies the verb directly: *"say outright"*, *"refuse outright"*, *"lie outright"*.
משמעות
openly or directly, without hiding
צירופים
lie outright |say outright |state outright |admit outright |refuse outright |criticize outright
מילים נרדפות
openly (Focuses on not hiding something; often slightly less strong than *outright*.) | bluntly (Adds a nuance of rudeness or insensitivity compared with *outright*.)
הפכים
indirectly (Means expressing something in a roundabout or less clear way, the opposite of being outright.)

טעות נפוצה:
Learners sometimes put *outright* after the noun (*"a ban outright"*) when they want this adjective meaning. For this sense, *outright* normally comes before the noun: *"an outright ban", "an outright victory"*. When it comes after the verb or object, it usually has the adverb meanings.
משמעות
complete or total; not partial
צירופים
outright ban |outright winner |outright victory |outright majority |outright defeat |outright control
מילים נרדפות
total (Very close in meaning; slightly more common and slightly less strong in emphasis than *outright*.) | absolute (Suggests a stronger, more formal sense of being not limited in any way.)

משמעות
blatant and clearly unacceptable
