Etymology: "Outpocketings" is the plural of "outpocketing," a noun meaning the act of removing. The word is built from "out" and "pocket," with the "-ing" suffix turning the verb "outpocket," to take out of a pocket, into a noun for that act. Its plural adds the usual "-s," so the form refers to several such acts or instances of removal taken together.
