If you hope the person never comes back, use expel, a verb that suggests driving someone out of a country, an organization, etc., for all time (•to be expelled from school); it can also imply the use of voluntary force (•to expel air from the lungs). If you exercise force or the power of law to get rid of someone or something, oust is the correct verb (•ousted after less than two years in office). If as a property owner you are turning someone out of a house or a place of business, you'll want to evict the person (•she was evicted for not paying the rent). Dismiss is by far the mildest of these terms, suggesting that you are rejecting or refusing to consider someone or something (•to dismiss a legal case). It is also commonly used of loss of employment (•dismissed from his job for excessive tardiness).These notes show fine distinctions in meaning between closely related synonyms to help you find the best word. |
