Lived longer than someone else; or lasted longer than something else, often surviving a difficult period or outlasting its usefulness.
From out- (beyond) + lived (past tense of live). This compound emerged in English around the 1500s, creating a word for surviving beyond the lifespan of another person or the lifecycle of an object.
Species like the coelacanth fish were thought to have 'outlived' their time—they're called 'living fossils' because they survived mass extinctions that killed other creatures. Your great-grandparent's furniture might outlive modern electronics, raising questions about quality, durability, and planned obsolescence.
