Synonyms & Antonyms

Root Explanation

Outpreach → It is formed from "out-" (meaning beyond or outside) and "preach" (from Old English "precan", meaning to proclaim or declare). The word "outpreach" means to proclaim or declare beyond others, often in a more forceful or effective manner.

Memory Tip

Think of going 'beyond' ('out-') in your 'proclamation' ('preach') — that's why outpreach means to declare something more powerfully than others.
