Wait...still looking up asperations. Wait, no you said "aspersions".
Asperse: from the Latin "ad spargere" = to sprinkle. To sprinkle you--oh my? No no!
To slander (see slander) = the utterance of a falsehood that damages another's reputation.
Aspersion: A damaging or disparaging remark; to slander
Oh my?

Good evening.
