Is it incorrect to add the preposition 'out' in the following sentence?

1. Please list the items out.

But I think it's natural to say

2. Please write the items out.

Thanks.

Hi,


1. Please list the items out. Sounds very odd. Omit 'out'.

2. Please write the items out. Fine.

Best wishes, Clive
