What does motion carried mean?
In parliamentary procedure, a motion, or suggested resolution is proposed by the mover, one of the people at the meeting. A seconder (another person at the meeting) agrees that the suggestion should be discussed. The chair (the person running the meeting) calls for discussion on the motion. If it appears that the suggestion should be voted on, someone will call for the question. The chair will, once it appears that there is no more discussion, call for those in favour of the motion (those who agree) to signal (usually by raising hands), and then call for those who are opposed (who disagree). If those who agree outnumber those who do not, the chair says "Motion carried", which means that the suggestion in the motion has been adopted by the meeting. For example, at a meeting you could have an exchange like this: Mover: I move we eat lunch at the Chinese restaurant. Seconder: I second that. Chair: Any discussion? Curry Lover: I would prefer the Curry House. Feeble Stomach: Some of us cannot eat spicy food. And you can get curry at the Chinese Restaurant. Chair: Any more discussion? Hungry Man: I'm hungry. Let's have the question. Everyone: Question! Chair: All in favour of eating lunch at the Chinese Restaurant? (everyone except Curry Lover puts up their hands) Down hands. Opposed? (Curry Lover raises his hand) Motion Carried. We eat at the Chinese Restaurant.

What is the meaning of motion is out of order?
Someone at a meeting has 'made a motion', a proposal, that the group do some specific thing. A motion can be any one of many dozens of possibilities. In this case, the chairperson of the committee (or the parliamentarian, in very formal settings) has determined that according to the rules of order being used for the meeting, that particular motion cannot be made at this time. There may be other motions that first have to be considered, or there may be some other procedural things that have to be accomplished before that motion can be made. So right after the committee member makes the motion by saying, for example, "I move that we adjourn until tomorrow at 10", the Chair says "That motion is out of order. We first must...." Roberts' Rules of Order are commonly and widely used and respected. As a footnote, when something is called "out of order" by the Chair (and only the Chair can say this if the assembly is civilized) it has nothing whatever to do with the preferences or positions held by any members of the Chair. It isn't used rhetorically or for effect. It has to do with the technical order in which various things have to be accomplished by the committee.
