  The Online Slang Dictionary offers nearly 200 words referring to sexual intercourse. Many of the terms and phrases connote violence, such as: “bang,” “beat,” “chopped up,” “cut,” “hit,” “hit raw,” “hit that,” “kick it,” “nail,” “pound,” “ram,” “slap and tickle,” “slay,” “smack,” “smash,” and “spank”

使用注意[编辑]

另一種過去式及過去分詞“slayed”基本上用於俚語義“使人感覺良好、高興”：
Harry Charles Witwer (1929) Yes Man's Land‎^[3], 页254: “"Cutey, you slayed me !" grins Jackie, working fast. "I guess that's what made the rest of 'em look so bad — you was so good!"”
當然，其他義項也有使用“slayed”，但一般被視為是非標準用法。^[1]
根據COCA在美國2000年-2009年的調查中，“slayed”的使用普及度正在上升，但仍不如“slew”。BNC的調查則顯示，“slayed”在英國使用一直很少。
“slain”現在多用於新聞標題，因為比“murdered”短。

近義詞[编辑]

(殺)： kill, murder, assassinate
(擊敗)： conquer, defeat, overcome
(使人感覺良好、高興)： kill, hit it out of the park
(發生性關係)： coitize, go to bed with, sleep with
