How to use Deru: grammar notes

•Use 出る with に to say "to appear in" or "to attend" something — for example, パーティーに出る means “to attend a party.”
•Use 出る with を to say "to leave" a place — like 家を出る means “to leave the house” (don’t say 家に出る, that’s a common mistake!).
•出る is often used on its own without needing extra words — for example, 電車が出る means “the train leaves” (use が to mark what is leaving).
