Answer 5

AWOL is a military acronym (a word where each letter stands for another word) that stands for Absense With Out Leave.

Typically, it refers to someone who is not present at his command or station who cannot be found and so is considered to be gone without permission.

When civilians (us regular people!) use this term, it typically means that we've checked out for a while, whether we are just spacing out, ignoring the things or people around us, never available for parties or outings, or have literally left town and none of our friends or family know where we are at.
