Etymology

The word 'slop' originates from Middle English 'slopen', which means to spill or spill over. The term is related to Old Norse 'slopa', which refers to something that drips or falls, reflecting the action of a liquid spilling out of a container. Over time, 'slop' evolved to include a broader range of meanings, particularly in reference to liquids being spilled carelessly. In agricultural contexts, 'slop' can also refer to the watery food given to animals, which further deepens its association with liquid substances. The transition from the noun form to the verb form suggests a clear visual image of movement and messiness, which is central to its usage in modern English.
