Etymology
خُرُوج is the verbal noun of the Form I verb خَرَجَ, meaning to go out. It is built on the triliteral Semitic root خ-ر-ج, which carries the sense of emerging or exiting. The فُعُول pattern turns the action into an abstract noun: the going-out itself. The same root yields the exit (مَخْرَج), the graduate (خَريج), and film directing (إخْراج).
