No, you can use hammer-ons in a non-legato way, even staccato.
The correct term for slides would Glissando and for tapping that's just basically 16th in groups of 3 notes on each beat (eeehhh... CAn't explain that very well, i'm looking for the word...)

16th note triplets is what you're looking for
and as far as the use glissando and sticatto, these terms are traditional music notation and have very specific meaning. i was just referring to the guitarist slang use of the word legatto, which is, in the guitar world, playing with the left hand only.

Triplets, yeah.
I've never heard that being used to describe left hand playing, but that would make no sense. You still use traditional language.

i'll find an example when i'm at home, but to really simplify what a triplet is, think about counting beats back in elementary school (if you had music class). if a song is in 4/4, you can count whole notes (1...2...3...4), you can count half notes (1.&.2.&.3.&.4.&.), you can count quarter notes (1e&a2e&a3e&a4e&a), and so on. a triplet is a note duration that lasts 1/3 of a whole note, so you count the beats (tri-puh-let, tri-puh-let, tri-puh-let, tri-puh-let)...not sure if that makes any sense, but once you grasp it, its very simple and a good way to rhythmically diversify your improv.
and rival, i completely agree that the the proper terms should be used, but come on...honestly, if you say the word "glissando" to any 16 year old guitarist out there, do you think they will know what it means? i'm not the one who started using legatto to describe half of the techniques in music, i'm just restating an observation.

and I knew as a 16-year-old guitarist what a glissando is. but well, anyways, i just never heard that.

all that matters is that the yeah yeah yeahs' "date with the night" is one of the coolest songs ever. c'mon...the vocalist practically orgasms in the bridge...and i must say it is more appealing than robert plant's attempts to do the same.
