A slant Sonnet is not an actual sonnet, but a rhyme scheme of a sonnet.
A rhyme scheme for a Shakespearean Sonnet is ABABCDCDEFEFGG.
This means that every other line (ABAB) will rhyme.
A slant rhyme though deviates from this slightly. While you are still rhyming, the sounds of the two rhyming words may sound different.
Ex from Shakespere's Sonnet 18: "Thou art more lovely and more temperate: / And summer's lease has all too short a date:"
The words Temperate and Date rhyme, but you can tell that they don't rhyme 100%.
