Find Out

The phrasal verb 'find out' means to discover a fact or information that you did not know before.

Example: My sister found out that her husband had been planning a surprise party for her.

I went to the library to find out all I could about the Vietnam War.

We often add the word 'about' to this phrasal verb.

Example: He found out about the theft when he arrived home.
