Definition of undefined

The phrase "run away" comes from the simple combination of two Old English words: "rinnan" (to run) and "weg" (away). The idea of running away, however, is much older than the English language itself. Humans have been fleeing danger or undesirable situations for as long as we've existed. The phrase's origin reflects the basic human instinct to move quickly and escape from a perceived threat, something deeply ingrained in our evolution.
