How to use "Slight" in context?
It's hard to pinpoint the defining features of a "slight." Is it something that makes a noticeable impact, or is it subtle to the point of being imperceptible? Is it a subjective descriptor, or does it have a set definition? Is it a word used generally to describe the feeling of being slighted, or is it more specific, referring to a specific instance?
There seems to be no definitive answer, as slighting can mean different things to different people. Nevertheless, slighting has played a big role in history, and it still affects people today.
