Outgang is a noun that refers to a group of people who leave or depart from a certain place or organization. It is derived from the combination of the prefix "out-" meaning "away" or "outside" and the noun "gang" denoting a group or gathering of individuals.
Primarily used in Scottish and Northern English dialects, the term typically describes a gathering or company of individuals who are departing or exiting from a specific location. This can include scenarios where a group of people leave a building, vacate a premises, or even migrate from a particular organization or community.
The concept of outgang implies a collective action, suggesting that the individuals departing share a common reason or goal. The term often conveys a sense of unity or camaraderie among those who are leaving together, emphasizing the shared experience of departing from a particular place or organization.
Although typically used in informal or regional contexts, outgang serves as a convenient term for describing the act of leaving as a group, distinguishing it from individual departures. The term's limited usage, primarily in Scottish and Northern English dialects, adds to its distinctive and localized characteristics, contributing to the preservation of regional language varieties and cultural identities.
The word "outgang" is derived from Old English, specifically from the elements "ut" (meaning "out") and "gang" (meaning "a going, a path, or a way"). "Ut" is related to the modern English word "out", while "gang" has roots in the Proto-Germanic language. In Old English, "outgang" referred to an exit, departure, or the act of going out. Over time, the word evolved and is now less commonly used, but can still be found in certain dialects or specialized contexts.
