Synonyms Neglect, Disregard, Slight. Slight always expresses intention: it applies to persons or things. Neglect and disregard apply more often to things, and may or may not express intention; disregard is more often intentional than neglect. Only neglect may be followed by an infinitive: as, to neglect to write a letter; among things it generally applies to action that is needed, while disregard commonly applies to failure to heed or notice: as, to disregard counsel, a hint, a request, the lessons of experience, the signs of coming rain; to neglect a duty.
