The ways we use just one word

[PROESL]

hehe I thought we're out of bread/rice has got a different, hidden meaning. Other than that I know the meaning 'to be out of something'
Thanks PROESL

What about 'hear me out'?

I thought so, but you asked, so ...

The phrase hear me out means "listen to everything I have to say" or "be patient enough to hear everything I have to say because it has value and it'll help you understand".
