Outside; away from or separate from something; on the outside.
From French dehors, combining de- (from) + hors (outside), derived from Latin foris (outside). Used in English legal and formal contexts.
In legal documents, 'dehors' appears in phrases like 'dehors the record,' meaning information exists outside the official court document—it's how lawyers say 'not part of the official stuff.'
