Yes, you used "feck" correctly.

The sentence "Slough is very prominent in many households that are in the slums" contains a few grammatical errors. First, the word "slough" should be capitalized as it refers to a proper noun, which is a town in the United Kingdom. Second, it seems that the word "slough" is being misused in the sentence. If you are referring to the noun meaning "a swamp or marshy area," it would not be appropriate to say that slough is prominent in households. However, if you are referring to the verb meaning "to shed or cast off," the sentence would still require revision to make sense.

To use the word "slough" in a sentence correctly, consider the following examples:

1. "I visited Slough, a town in the United Kingdom, and was amazed by its diversity."
2. "During the spring, birds and other animals return to the slough to nest."
3. "Snakes often slough off their old skin to accommodate growth."

Remember, the meaning of "slough" will depend on the context in which you use it.
