How to use 推出

推出 is most often used for companies, studios or governments releasing something new to the public, such as products, services, films, albums or policies. It is common in news and business writing. Example: 这家公司推出了一款新手机。(Zhè jiā gōngsī tuīchūle yì kuǎn xīn shǒujī.) This company launched a new phone.

推 (tuī) means to push, and 出 (chū) means out. Picture a company pushing a new product out the door and into the market.

Common mistake: Learners often confuse 推出 with 提出 (tíchū). 提出 is for raising ideas, questions or suggestions. 推出 is for releasing something concrete or official to the public. So say 提出建议 (tíchū jiànyì), not 推出建议.
