What’s the meaning of “slip”?

I’m learning English.

“It’s good.”

“Isn’t it? Isn’t it?”

It seemed that he heard my slip.

“I’ll make everyone’s share from now on!”

You guys are mean to make such a complex answer to someone who starts with “I’m learning English.”

“slip” in this case means “mistake” or “accident” and it is a metaphor … for the “slip” that actually means “trip” or “fall”

English is a crazy language!

Slip can mean a type of undergarment that is worn under a dress. “Her slip was showing under the black dress.”

Slip can mean to fall. “Be careful not to slip on the icy sidewalk”

Slip can mean to say something wrong. “He let is slip that she was going to quit her job”

Slip can mean to give someone something. “Slip the paper under the door to his office so he will get it first thing in the morning.”

Slip is also really watery clay when you are working with ceramics.

There could be more meanings- I just thought of these ones. You could try google dictionary if you need more meanings.
