今週の句動詞【pan out】
This week’s phrasal verb is “pan out”.
It is used when we talk about someone’s plans and if they ended successfully or not.
We almost always use this expression as a question (How did that pan out?), or in the negative (It didn’t pan out.)
In the case of the question, we are basically asking, ”Was that situation successful or not?” In the case of the negative sentence, we’re basically saying, “No, it wasn’t successful.” or “It couldn’t be done.”
However, it sounds strange in English if we say, “It panned out.” Instead, we would say something like: “It was very successful.” or “It worked out well.” or something like that.
