Raumtemperatur vs Außentemperatur

outside temperature

'Raumtemperatur' and 'Außentemperatur' are both temperatures, but they refer to different places. 'Raumtemperatur' means the temperature in an enclosed room, for example in an apartment or office. 'Außentemperatur' means the air temperature outside. So the words stand in clear contrast: inside and outside. They can be confused because both may have to do with weather, heating, or clothing. Just ask yourself: if it is about a room, use 'Raumtemperatur'; if it is about outdoors, use 'Außentemperatur'.
