What does ASLOPE mean in Scrabble?
adverb
archaicliterary
In a slanting or sloping position, leaning away from a level or upright line.
A field, roof or path described as lying aslope tilts noticeably to one side rather than running level or straight up and down. Writers once used aslope where a modern speaker would more likely say on a slant or sloping, and the word survives today mainly in older or deliberately old-fashioned prose. Poets have favored aslope for the way it lets a single word carry both direction and angle at once, as in a beam of light falling aslope across a room. The word rarely appears in ordinary conversation, though it still turns up in literary description of landscapes and light.
How ASLOPE is used
A literary and archaic adverb, met mainly in older or poetic writing about landscape, light or posture rather than in everyday speech.
