| Jan 4, 2018 at 17:13 | comment | added | ktm5124 | @WillCrawford Alas, "slant" would not have slant rhyme. I must admit though that it's a moot point now; I am no longer trying to achieve that rhyme. | |
| Jan 4, 2018 at 15:40 | comment | added | Nigel J | The word in the question itself is correct - slope. Bevel is inappropriate. | |
| Jan 4, 2018 at 15:06 | comment | added | Will Crawford | It's ironic you use the phrase slant rhyme because slant is one word that would probably be appropriate here. | |
| Jan 4, 2018 at 14:46 | comment | added | Will Crawford | @NigelJ not really, the correct word here is neither of those given on the question about the building. | |
| Jan 4, 2018 at 7:43 | comment | added | Andrew Leach♦ | What has your own research into the word revealed? How many dictionaries even hint at this usage of bevel vs how many which do not? | |
| Jan 4, 2018 at 6:58 | comment | added | ktm5124 | @NigelJ I don't think so, because I'm asking about this word in a very specific context (i.e. driveways) whereas that question and its answers do not touch upon this context. | |
