“Go to ground” is a slang term that means to disappear or go into hiding, often to avoid being caught or found by someone. It is commonly used in situations where someone needs to lay low or escape from a difficult or dangerous situation.
When someone says they are going to ground, it means they are hiding or staying out of sight for a period of time to avoid being found or caught. This can happen after committing a crime, being pursued by law enforcement, or simply wanting to disappear temporarily. It implies a need for secrecy and a desire to avoid any attention or detection.
Example 1: After the robbery, the suspect decided to go to ground and hide out in a remote cabin in the mountains until the heat died down.
Example 2: The whistleblower feared for their safety and decided to go to ground by cutting off all communication and moving to a different location to protect themselves from potential retaliation.
