This book analyzes shifts in the meanings of German verbs prefixed with various forms of the separable prefix, 'aus'. The author examines how the prefix has developed several meanings since its Old High German form when it primarily indicated directionality. The book first focuses on 'aus' with its original force, where the author provides numerous examples of its use from the 9th century to the present day. It proceeds to discuss the development of new meanings by 'aus', including specialized and weakened forms of the prefix. The author concludes by noting that the various meanings of 'aus' have greatly expanded the expressive range of German verbs.
