Dear teachers,

Would you be kind enough to tell me whether I am right with my interpretation of the expression in bold in the following sentence?

[FONT=&quot]Sidelines and end lines are out of bounds.

.[/FONT][FONT=&quot]out of bounds = beyond established limits, breaking the rules[/FONT][FONT=&quot] (a restricted area, a closed area)

(This expression alludes to the boundaries of the playing area in numerous sports and to the rules applying to them.)[/FONT]

Thanks for your efforts.

Regards,

V.
