作者：蕾莎最後更新： 02/08/2016

Uncle Ben is busy in his restaurant. 'Uncle Ben, do you want to join our party tonight?' Robin asked. 'No, I poop out after a day's work.' Uncle Ben seems tired already. 'What? Pop out? Like a Jack-in-the-box?' Robin is confused. 'No! I mean poop out. Not pop out!' Uncle Ben said. 'Poop out means get very tired...' Uncle Ben further explained. 'Right, there are a lot of customers in the restaurant tonight.' Monster said. Look like Monster is poop out too.

'Poop out' is a phrasal verb meaning to become very tired and unable to continue working or operating. And 'pop out' means to move quickly and suddenly, especially from an enclosed space.

However, the word “poop” means solid waste. It has a different meaning from the phrasal verb of “poop out”. So use the word wisely, otherwise it may lead to big jokes!

Examples:

1. I planned to go play tennis, but I pooped out and went to bed instead.

2. He pooped out after climbing up the mountain.

3. Oh this box is a jack-in-the-box! When I opened it, a funny clown popped out to my face!
