'Ground' comes from Old English 'grund', meaning 'bottom' or 'foundation', and 'related' comes from Latin 'relatus', meaning 'brought back'.
Initially, 'ground' meant 'bottom' or 'foundation', but over time it evolved to mean the solid surface of the earth. 'Related' has maintained its meaning of connection or association.
