I answer with reservations, as I say Med-i-Sin!

Fair enough. I was really just after the two vs three syllable thing there.

I say something more like med-sin. Ho hum.

And I can't answer 'slough' at all because I use all three, depending on context.

English is a silly language! ;-)

For Slough, I went with the first thing I thought of. Which was snakes.

More like med-i-sun for me. And the Slough is a bit iffy, as well. Though I only know it in such usage as "slough off," like a snake skin, or from hearing it pronounced as "slow" on The Office. I'd never heard of the actual place before that :)
