"Lower (oneself) to (some level)" nghĩa là hạ thấp bản thân, khom lưng cúi mình trước hành vi vô đạo đức, không ra gì.

Ví dụ
You should not lower yourself to the level of being sacrificial fodder (thức ăn gia súc) because you are too high a value.

Instead of presuming to raise them up to me like some pedant (nhà thông thái rởm), I lower myself to their level so as to put myself within their reach. What's more, I feel better for it.

'I won't lower myself to her level again,' she said resolutely. 'She has lost a child,' Carmel said gently. 'Time will ease the pain for both of you although you won't think it now. I'm glad you've come to this decision.'

Oh come on, Jesus Christ, I've never been so horny as to lower myself to do something like that. I had no regard for her at all. She might as well have been a hooker (gái điếm). What makes matters worse, I know her history.
