1
friendly and likes being with people
friendly and confident; liking to meet and talk to many people
Модель уживання:
[someone] is (very) outgoing
Поширена помилка:
Learners sometimes confuse "outgoing" with "going out" (leaving the house for fun) and say *"I am very going out"* instead of "I am very outgoing." Also, "outgoing" is mainly used for people, not for events or places; saying *"an outgoing party"* sounds odd, while "an outgoing person" is natural.
Синоніми
sociable (Focuses on liking to be with other people; slightly more formal and less about confidence.)
|
extroverted (More psychological and technical; often contrasts with 'introverted'.)
|
gregarious (More formal and literary; suggests enjoying the company of others a lot.)
Антоніми

leaving a job or official role
having a job or position that is ending soon because someone new is taking the role
Модель уживання:
outgoing [job title/position]
Поширена помилка:
Learners sometimes confuse this with the "friendly" meaning and think *"outgoing president"* means the president is sociable. In news and business, it almost always means "leaving the job". Context with titles like "president", "CEO", or "government" usually signals this meaning.
Синоніми
departing (More formal and general; can be used for people or things that are leaving.)
|
retiring (Used when someone is permanently leaving work, usually because of age.)
Антоніми
incoming (Refers to the person or group who is about to start the job or position that the outgoing one is leaving.)

going out from a place or system
going out from a place, office, or system to another place, especially for calls, mail, or money
Модель уживання:
outgoing [call/mail/flights/payments]
Поширена помилка:
Learners may think "outgoing call" means a call to go out socially. In technical or business contexts, it simply means a call that you make, not one you receive. Also, do not say *"go out mail"*; use "outgoing mail" instead.
Синоніми
outbound (Common in transport and logistics; slightly more technical and formal.)
|
outgoing (for calls): placed ("Placed" is often used in technical or formal descriptions like "calls placed".)
Антоніми

money that is paid out
money that you pay regularly, for example for rent, food, or bills; usually used as "outgoings"
Модель уживання:
[someone’s] outgoings
Поширена помилка:
Learners may not realize that this noun is typically used in the plural as "outgoings." Saying *"my outgoing is high"* sounds unnatural; use "my outgoings are high" or "my expenses are high."
Синоніми
expenses (Very common and general; used in both everyday and business contexts.)
|
expenditure (More formal; often used for official or large-scale spending.)
Антоніми
