Etymologia (Angielski)

Pokrewny z staronordyjski: slent

Pokrewny z szwedzki: slinta

Pokrewny z norweski: slenta

In summary

Late Middle English, from a variant of the earlier form dialectical slent, from Old Norse or another North Germanic source, cognate with Old Norse slent, Swedish slinta (“to slip”), Norwegian slenta (“to fall on the side”), from Proto-Germanic *slintaną. Probably influenced by aslant.
