"An action that was unintended". Not convinced that this is what this word means. If it fails, please deal with any related thesaurus/synonym detritus. Equinox ◑ 02:33, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
- In several dictionaries with two other definitions: "watery food or drink".
- “slipslop”, in The Century Dictionary […], New York, N.Y.: The Century Co., 1911, →OCLC. also has "blunder".
- Google slipslop (Books • Groups • Scholar) seems to offer attestation for all three definitions. (Need to exclude the numerous references to "Mrs Slipslop" (in Joseph Andrews and other uses as proper name.) DCDuring (talk) 16:21, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
I have cited numerous other definitions, but cannot find enough support for an unintended action. I also added one cite that uses slipslop as an adverb, but I have not found the required two others. Kiwima (talk) 11:04, 5 August 2018 (UTC)
