Sleveen:
This is a word I heard my Granddad use often, and it is one of my favourite words in the Newfoundland dictionary. It means: "guileful fellow, a schemer, a trickster. A sly deceitful man; a mean fellow; rascal; a mischieyous child".
I have met a few of them in my time.

Uncle Solomon Noddy was a sleveen... or was he a hangashore? I don't remember. :)
Oh... and you are early!
I have to wait a whole month to use this word!

Opps! Fixed it!
I ever got any notification for these comments. Mmmm
Hey! Now that you fixed it, my and nuclear mom's comments seem stupid. What a sleveen you are! ;)
