check out

Finish your stay

Check out has two main clusters of meaning.

One involves leaving—you check out of a hotel, or check out at a store by paying and departing.

The other involves examining or verifying: Check out this article, The story checks out.

To check out can also mean to stop paying attention or mentally disengage: He just checked out during the meeting.

As slang, it means to die.
