Could you tell me what the difference is between "find" and "find out?" For example, what is the difference between "find the main idea of the paragraph" and "find out the main idea of the paragraph?"
Top answer
In your sentence, they're pretty much the same. However, in general: "Find" = locate. "Find out" = discover.
