The word “slough” can be pronounced in a couple of ways, depending on the context. If you’re referring to the noun meaning a swampy area or a section of a river, it’s typically pronounced “slou,” rhyming with “cow.” However, if you’re using it as a verb meaning to shed or remove skin (like snakes do), it’s pronounced “slew,” rhyming with “few.” If you’re ever unsure, context usually helps clarify!
