Alright, so "blurt out" is something we've probably all done at some point in our lives. It's when we say something without really thinking about it first. Kind of like when you're so excited to share something that you just can't wait and it comes out without you meaning for it to. It's like having a thought and not being able to hold it in, so it jumps out of your mouth.

Imagine you're in a classroom and the teacher asks a question. You have the answer and you're so eager to share it that you just say it out loud without raising your hand first. That's "blurting out" the answer. It's like a thought slipping out of your mouth before you have a chance to decide if it's the right time or place to say it.

Another example could be when you're with a group of friends and one of them has a secret. If you accidentally say their secret out loud without realizing, that's also "blurting out" something. It's like not having a filter before you speak.

So basically, "blurt out" means to say something suddenly and without thinking about it first. It's like when your words just pop out without you meaning them to. Does that make sense?
