the world's largest game of hide-and-seek, except losing means cuffs instead of giggles.
means An organized, large-scale search for a person, usually a fugitive or suspect, by police or other authorities.
from A transparent English compound of "man" and "hunt," both Old English words (mann and huntian) — the same "hunt" you'd use for deer or rabbits, now turned on a human quarry. The word emerged in the 19th century, treating the pursuit of a wanted person with the same vocabulary as chasing game through the woods.
