Out can also add the meaning away from.

For example, at the station, someone might ask, Excuse me, what time is your outbound journey?

And when you arrive, your friend can meet you with outstretched arms.

Years out can also affect verbs by adding the meaning going further than or being better than to make words like outlive outmatch and outperform, for example.

She'll probably outlive us all.
