In the primary lessons: In maths: the outside edge of a shape (outer border, outer ring); the outer edge is a perimeter; an outer border = whole area − inner area. In science: the outer layer of the Earth is the crust; outer planets are far from the sun. Phrases: outer edge, outer layer, outer space, outer ring, outer wall.
