Hello everybody, my name is Coach Shane and welcome to easy English expressions.

You and me every day, come on, let's master English Hello everybody, welcome back to daily easy English expression, the podcast.

Let's Master English.com. Today's expression is to dump something out. To dump something out.

Now to dump something can actually mean to throw away. To dump out could also mean throw away, but this is actually a more common definition.

Let's say you have a cup full of coffee. Now, most people enjoy their coffee hot. Do you like your coffee cold?

Not me.

So if my coffee is too cold, I usually dump it out into the sink.

I pour it out into the sink.

Now, sometimes if it's really good coffee or if it's not that old, I'll dump, so I buy coffee

at Starbucks and it's in a paper cup.

And if it gets too cold, I'll dump it out into a glass coffee cup and then I'll put it in the microwave and I'll reheat it.

I don't like to reheat paper.

I don't like to reheat plastic, but I will reheat glass or ceramic.

So I'll dump it out into a different cup. So the first example, dump out

into the sink, well, that does mean throw away. But the second example, dump it out into a glass

coffee cup. I'm not throwing it away. I'm just moving it from one place to another.

Does this make sense?

Okay, I've got another example of when we use dump out in the dialogue.

Check it out.

Who dumped out my candies? The cats? And my pencil cup? The cats? What's their problem?

I guess they don't like you. Yes, this happens to me, oh, I would say two or three times a week.
