Hello,
'Try in' doesn't really mean anything to me. 'Try on' is used when you put on clothes to see if they are the right size. 'Try out' is to check to see if something is working or appropriate.

Hi, Livia. The name of those small and annoing words is PREPOSITIONS. In combination with verbs they are called Phrasal Verbs. You can easily find hundreds of such dictionaries on i-net with detailed explanation. Here is the link to one of them.
Go on and good-luck!

Hi,
'Try out' suggests that you use something to see whether you like it or whether you want it. A car dealer would let you drive a car to see whether you like driving it - you try out the car.
