Arm injury support
A sling is a device for hurling stones—a pouch on two cords, swung to build momentum.
David killed Goliath with one.
The word extends to any strap or band that supports, suspends, or carries: a rifle sling, an arm sling for injuries, a baby sling.
To sling is to throw casually or carelessly: She slung her bag over her shoulder.
To sling hash is to work as a short-order cook.
A sling is also a cocktail of spirits, sugar, and citrus: a Singapore sling.
