583: Slime Jul 13, 2016
The idea of slime is rather vague, and really anything damp or gooey could be considered such. Related words of other languages may have different meanings that as a sum are the same, but individually are more specific. The Modern German word, 'Schleim' means 'mucus' and unlike in English, this word is more formal enough to be used medically. The Latin word 'limus' which shares the Indo-European root means 'mud', and likewise the Greek equivalent means 'marsh'.
