What part of speeches are "out" and "there" in "Something's out there."?
What part of speeches are the words "out" and "there" in "Something's out there." ?
Is "out" a preposition or an adverb? How about "there"?
Thank you.

I take them both as adverbs, but whether 'out' should be considered a modifier of 'there' is, in my opinion, an unanswerable question. CJ By the way, "parts of speech", not "part of speeches".

0The phrase "out there" is adverbial. It means somewhere indefinite, rather far away, outside the room, the house, the planet or the solar system, depending on the context. It often is associated with some vague threat.
