Hi,

What does below sentence mean? Out of touch with reality?

Does she seem grounded in reality?

Thank you in advance.
  

Top answer

"grounded in reality" means having a foundation in reality -- pretty much the exact opposite of "out of touch with reality". If, in the context, the speaker expects or suggests a negative answer, the speaker's implication may be that she is out of touch with reality.
