Throw out of or throw out from?
I wonder which version is correct? Correct me if I am wrong!
I was thrown out from the place
or
I was thrown out of the place
?
For example, I am at my friend's house and my friend has a brother and we are hanging out in his room. Then my friend's brother comes and yells: "Get out! Leave!" and throws us out. Can I say he threw us out from his room or he threw us out of his room?

It's usually 'throw out of' in the sense of rejecting something undesirable. 'Throw out from' could be used in the sense of 'produce', as in sparks thrown out from a firework, or light thrown out from a lamp.

Both are grammatical, but they mean different things. Please edit your question to describe what your are trying to express.

According to Merriam-Webster's Dictionary:
out of
— used as a function word to indicate direction or movement from within to the outside of
// walked out of the room
Merriam-Webster's Dictionary doesn't give examples with 'out from' except some idioms.
As for me, "out from" means rather 'out from some object' than 'out from some volume'.
Though there is an example from Reverso.context.net:
Is government planning to throw us out from our homes?
