Cách sử dụng
The expression "lose out to" means to be defeated by someone or something. It is usually used in competition or a situation where there are winners and losers. For example, if two people are competing for a job and one person gets the job over the other person, then the person who didn't get the job has "lost out to" the other person. It can also refer to missing a chance or opportunity. For instance, if someone chooses not to apply for a scholarship and later finds out they were eligible, they may have "lost out to" someone who did apply and was awarded the scholarship.
