take out · bring out

The German word "rausbringen" is a separable verb composed of "raus" (colloquial form of "heraus," meaning "out") and "bringen" (meaning "to bring").
Together, "rausbringen" means "to take out" or "to bring out", and it’s often used when referring to bringing something outside, like taking out the trash or releasing a product.

Similar words:

  • "herausbringen" (to bring out, emphasize the direction "from inside to outside")
  • "entfernen" (to remove)
  • "ausführen" (to take out, e.g., a dog)

Differences:

  • "rausbringen" is more informal and common in daily language;
  • "herausbringen" stresses the movement out from an interior space;
  • "entfernen" means to remove or get rid of, often without the emphasis on transporting to outside;
  • "ausführen" often implies walking or leading something/someone outside rather than just bringing an object out.
