usages of "slew" #1 (permalink) Sun Feb 10, 2008 12:41 pm   usages of "slew"		  
Hi,
I just made up a funny sentence with lots of "slew" in it in order to remember the slather of different meanings of the word "slew".
Could you tell me if it makes any sence to you and if it is grammaticaly correct?

The sleigh slewed on the ice-crusted slew and slew a slew of slayers


Thanks in advance!

I don't think even Canadians would recognize the unusual spelling for 'slough' but otherwise, it's OK.
