"Slemp" is a rare word with no universally accepted definition. Its spelling can be explained using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) as /slɛmp/. The first sound in "slemp" is "sl," a consonant cluster that is pronounced by putting the tongue against the roof of the mouth and then releasing it with a slight puff of air. The "e" is pronounced as a short "e" sound, similar to the "e" sound in "set." The final sound in "slemp" is "mp," a consonant cluster pronounced by closing the lips and then releasing them with a puff of air.
