I'm not sure. I would've thought that soluble = NOT insoluble.

RE:
does slightly soluble mean insoluble? (chemistry)?

chemical reactions are all about equilibriums. Slightly soluble means that the substance is being dissolved, but the reaction is also occuring in reverse reforming the original substance. The net result is only a small amount of the original substance being dissolved at any time and this is called slightly soluble. Its between soluable (completly broken down) and insoluble (not broken down).

No.
It means exactly that - slightly soluble.
You can not say it is insoluble as some of the substance does dissolve.

No it simply means less of it would dissolve in, say a mole of solvent than would highly soluble substances, for example 5g out of 15g of slaked lime (calcium hydroxide) would dissove in 50ml of water but 15g of sodium chloride would dissolve completely, Ca(OH)2 is slightly soluble.
Such substances reach equilibrium between dissolution and precipitation earlier than soluble substances

No. "Insoluble" means not soluble at all. "Slightly soluble" means soluble just a little bit.
