出る (deru, "to go out") is a native Japanese verb whose basic sense is moving from inside to outside; it also extends to things that become visible or appear.

Usage tips

  • 出る (deru) is intransitive, so the person or thing that leaves or appears is the subject, unlike 出す (dasu), which means making something go out.
