📚 貸し出し = 貸す (lend) + 出す (put out): lend + put out, as a library does with books
貸す means to lend and 出す means to put out or take out. Together they describe putting something out on loan, the way a library lends books.
出 — foot 止 emerging from enclosure 凵
出 is a pictograph showing a foot or plant stepping out of a hollow or enclosure, depicting the act of going forth. The original sense of 'coming out' or 'emerging' has remained stable since oracle bone script. It now broadly means 'to exit, go out, or produce.'
