Exempel

  • I don't mind slopping the hogs, I just mind the stench of the slops.
  • The original "slops" were voluminous breeches of about knee length, reminiscent of 17th century "petticoat breeches", worn with stockings; these continue to be depicted as late as 1790s, but trousers, first introduced as slop-clothing in 1720s, were more functional and more popular.
  • (A direct quote from: 1897 Universal Dictionary of the English Language, v 4 p 4310)
