What does ASLANT mean in Scrabble?
adverb
literary
In a slanting or oblique direction, rather than straight up, down or across.
Aslant describes movement or position at an angle, such as light falling aslant through a window or a path running aslant a hillside. It can also work as a preposition meaning across something at an angle, as in a beam lying aslant the road. The word is older and somewhat more literary than everyday alternatives such as crooked or sideways, so it turns up more often in descriptive or poetic writing than in ordinary conversation.
