You would be correct unkie :D I've got a wicked slice lol, hence why my hole dog legs to the left ;)
one thing i noticed that's probably causing most of it is that your weight is hanging back on the right foot.

good drill: set up to the ball as normal, then take your left foot back to where your right foot is at address. take your normal backswing, and then step into it on the way down. maybe even do a gary player type of walk through finish to get the feeling of really getting that weight where it belongs, on the left side.

mac o'grady, the mad scientist of golf, suggests holding your finish in full balance for 10 seconds as a drill. this helps too, although it may seem almost impossible to do at first.

when you get that weight through, you have almost no option but to swing out to the right a bit, which should clear that slice right up, or turn it into a nice little fade.

I never called it grass, just remember the 'old' terms from my older buddies.
In my day, it was always 'weed', or smoke', or 'stuff'.
If we were asking somebody for it, we might say something like can you grab me some 'vegetable' or 'brocolli' if you're going shopping..
