Names And Slangs For Marijuana In The World.
According to Weedkipedia (Wikipedia), Marijuana is a name for cannabis plant and more specifically a drug preparation from it. It is 1st'ly used in Mexican Spanish and then the good virus keeps growing all over the world. It is popularly used among legal people, most of them prefer calling it marijuana to cannabis. But today, we have more than thousands plus street names for Cannabis.
I want to share some of those names with you, I believe some of us would have heard and known some of those names while some will be new to you. In my country (Nigeria) we call it over 3-5 names (That I know). And I know most countries in the world do have names for it too. Some names are just slangs while some places meaning for it is actually what they call it. But who knows, you can find yourself in any of those places and you will need cannabis, then you will need to call it a name which they will understand or slangs (which will not put you into any trouble after pronouncing it to the public).
