1. ground floor

   The ground floor is the floor of a building that is at the same level as the ground outside. It is usually the first floor you enter when coming into a building from street level, and is typically the location of the main entrance. In some countries like the United Kingdom, the ground floor is considered as the floor at street level and the next level is the first floor; however in many parts of the U.S., the first floor and the ground floor are used interchangeably.
