Etymology of OUTSOLD

The word "outsold" is formed by combining two English words: "out" and "sold".

The word "out" is derived from the Old English word "ūt", which means "outside, outward, from without". It has been used as a preposition since the 13th century to indicate movement away or removal from a place or position.

The word "sold" is derived from the Old English word "seldan", which means "to give, grant, dispose of by sale, offer for sale". It is related to the Old Norse word "sala" and Latin word "cellare", both meaning "to sell".

When these two words are combined, "out" indicates a sense of surpassing or exceeding, while "sold" refers to the act of selling. Thus, "outsold" means to have sold more or exceeded in sales.
