It's not slang, it's a metaphor.
Yes, I know. This was just an example, because all slang and regional words are marked as slang, so I thought that metaphorical words should also be labeled as such. So it's not really an error, but just an incompleteness of KGT. I just imagined a pure beginner who looks up the word and memorizes {nuH} as "possibility" and then is puzzled with a piece of text talking about weapons and wonders why they speak about possibilities. Or the other way, a beginner might be asking for a good possibility to do something and uses the word {nuH}, which might look strange. Even thought {nuH} is defined as "possibility" in the list, there still is the /regular/ word {DuH}, of which I think it should be preferred in usage wherever possible. And any external word list should label the metaphorical usage of {nuH}, in my opinion. -- Lieven L.
