Ausriefen

Ausriefen is a German verb that translates to "to proclaim," "to announce," or "to exclaim" in English. It is used to describe the act of making something known publicly or loudly, often with enthusiasm or urgency. The word is derived from the prefix "aus-" meaning "out" and the verb "rufen" meaning "to call" or "to shout."

The verb can be used in various contexts. For example, a town crier might ausrufen the latest news to the villagers. In a more figurative sense, someone might ausrufen their joy upon hearing good news. It can also describe the act of vociferously calling out something, such as a vendor ausrufen their wares at a market. The act of ausrufen often implies a certain level of performance or public declaration.

In modern German, while still understood, the verb ausrufen might be considered somewhat formal or even a bit archaic in everyday conversation, depending on the specific context. More common synonyms for announcing or proclaiming include "ankündigen," "verkünden," or "bekannt geben." However, "ausrufen" retains its specific nuance of a loud, public, and often emphatic declaration. It can also be used to describe the formal declaration of something, such as a state of emergency being ausgerufen.
