Be Careful!
When find has this meaning, don't use 'out' after it. Don't say, for example, 'I eventually found out what I was looking for'.

2. 'discover'

Discover is sometimes used instead of 'find'. Discover is a rather formal word.

The bodies of the family were discovered by police officers on Tuesday.

If you cannot see the thing you are looking for, you say that you cannot find it.

However, don't say that you 'cannot discover' something.

3. noticing something

You can use find or discover to say that someone notices an object somewhere.

4. obtaining information

If you find, find out, or discover that something is the case, you learn that it is the case.

Researchers found that there was little difference between the two groups.It was such a relief to find out that the boy was safe.He has since discovered that his statement was wrong.

In clauses beginning with when, before, or as soon as, you can omit the object after find out. You can't do this with find or discover.

You can also say that someone finds out facts that are easy to obtain.

Be Careful!
Don't say that someone 'discovers' facts that are easy to obtain.

5. another meaning of 'find'

You can use find followed by it and an adjective to give your opinion about something. For example, if you have difficulty doing something, you can say that you find it difficult to do it. If you think that something is funny, you can say that you find it funny.

I find it difficult to talk to the other parents.'Was the exam hard?' – 'No, I found it quite easy.'

Be Careful!
You must use it in sentences like these. Don't say, for example, 'I find difficult to talk to other parents'.

What does it mean when you dream about finding something?

Finding an object in a dream often symbolizes discovering something in our lives—finding our sense of self-identity; finding our place. The dream might also be drawing on the meaning of common idioms, such as to “find out,” “find one’s bearings,” or “fault finding.”

find

[fīnd] (industrial engineering) The therblig representing the mental reaction which occurs on recognizing an object at the end of the elemental motion search; now seldom used.

Find

(1) To search for text within the current document or Web page. Control-F in Windows and Command-F in the Mac open a search box for entering text. Pressing Enter starts the search and each subsequent press continues the search.

(2) (Find) An external DOS/Windows command that provides a "case sensitive" search for text in a file. Find is also used to locate files based on the text within the file name (see filters and pipes). Grep is the Mac/Unix/Linux counterpart to Find; however, there are third-party grep utilities for Windows as well (see grep).

The following example locates all the batch files in the current folder that contain the text XCOPY:
find "xcopy" *.bat

find

to determine an issue after judicial inquiry.
