im Ausland synonyms
What's the difference between im Ausland, außerhalb Deutschlands, ins Ausland, aus dem Ausland, im Ausland leben, ins Ausland reisen, auswärts, and draußen
Neutral and quite specific: “outside Germany.” It stresses the country Germany rather than the general idea of abroad.
Shows direction: “to a foreign country / abroad.” It is closer to “to abroad” than to the place itself.
Indicates origin or source: “from abroad / from a foreign country.” It stresses where someone or something comes from.
Describes a situation or way of life: “to live abroad.” It refers to long-term residence in another country.
Refers to an action: “to travel abroad.” It stresses the journey, not the place itself.
Advanced: broader words
Usually means “away from home / in another place”; it is more colloquial and not always strictly “abroad.”
Means “outside, outdoors, out of a building”; it is not a true synonym of “abroad,” but rather the opposite of “inside.”
Very general: “outside, beyond.” It needs context, because by itself it does not specifically mean “abroad.”
