"Discuss it out" vs "Coup up" Tue May 23, 2006 11:14 am  "Discuss it out" vs "Coup up"
 

Hello everybody

Can we say:

1- Discuss it out!
2-Coup up.

I have never seen them in any book but have seen people use it frequently.

Thanks in advance

Hi Tom

I would consider "discuss it out" to be incorrect. It sounds like somebody mixed it up with "talk it out".

"coup up" --> Do you mean "coop up" ?

Who have you heard say these 2 phrases and in what context?
