To leave or depart: It is often used for vehicles, such as trains or ships, departing from a specific location. It can also refer to a person leaving a place or a stage (as in theater).
To come off or detach: It describes something becoming detached from a surface, such as paint peeling off a wall, a button falling off a shirt, or a stain being removed during washing.
To leave an institution: Specifically, it refers to leaving school, university, or a job, either after graduation or before completion.
To be missing or lacking: In certain regions (especially Austria and Southern Germany), it is used to indicate that something is missing or that someone feels the loss of something.
To happen or go wild (slang): In colloquial language, it can mean "to be going on" (e.g., "What's going on?") or to describe a party or event that is very energetic and wild.
To pass (medical): It is used when the body naturally expels something, such as a kidney stone or a blood clot.
