Is it correct?
Is it the correct way to use this phrasal verb 'make out':
I can't make out your handwriting. It is difficult to make out faces in this photo.
Can you give me more examples with it? And maybe with a different meaning that is used often. Because there are to many translations in a dictionary and I'm not sure which meaning of this phrasal verb is used regularly and which is rarely.
