Word: slughorn Part of Speech: noun Etymology: See slogan. Sense 1 (“wind instrument”) is due to an incorrect use of the word slughorn (sense 2: “battle cry”) by the English poet Thomas Chatterton (1752–1770) in his 1760s pseudo-Medieval poetry. He described the fictional instrument in footnotes as “warlike instruments of music” (Ælla, a Tragycal Enterlude), “a musical instrument not unlike a hautboy” (Eclogue the Second), and “war trumpets” (Battle of Hastings (No. 2)). The erroneous sense was then continued by the English poet and playwright Robert Browning (1812–1889) in his 1855 poem Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came. The use by English author Terry Pratchett (1948–2015) in 1989 is a deliberate allusion to Chatterton. Pronunciation: /ˈslʌɡhɔːn/, /ˈslʌɡˌhɔɹn/, [ˈsləɡ-] 1. A certain fictional wind instrument. Labels: nonstandard, rare Example: Sounde, sounde the slughornes, to bee hearde fromm farre. Example: [...] And yet / Dauntless the slug-horn to my lips I set / And blew.
