Definitions and meaning of grass

grass

Etymology

From Middle English gras, from Old English græs, from Proto-Germanic *grasą (grass), from Proto-Indo-European *gʰreh₁- (to grow).

The "informer" sense is probably a shortening of grasshopper (police officer, informant), rhyming slang for copper (police officer) or shopper (informant); the exact sequence of derivation is unclear.
