"Mother and father are away today." (Treasury of English Grammar 1)
Is this sentence correct? I feel "away" is a little odd in meaning. How about I change it into "out"? I think "away" itself is not enough in meaning. The complete expression of "away from home" is more natural, while "out" itself is good enough. Thanks!
