Im really curious what some drug slangs from your country are, what meanings do they have? What are they derived from? Which ones are the most common?
Drop a couple in this thread, Ill start
 
In sweden we have a lot of nicknames for Speed/Amphetamine

Tjack - essentially means ”tweak” a ”tjackis” is a tweaker
Sho/tjo - probably derived from the word tjack but Sho is also slang for ”wassup”
Vaket - ”Awake”
Snabba skor - Literally translates to quick/fast shoes
Dojja - Means sneakers, likely derived from snabba skor
Dos - ”Dose”
Blomster - Translates to blooming/flowers but is often used to refer to speed with leftover phenylacetone from synthesis causing a floral smell.
Affe - Derived from amfetamin
Fultjack - ”Ugly tweak” poor quality/unpure amphetamine
Fintjack - ”Pretty tweak” good quality/pure amphetamine
Meta/Metatjack - Short for Methamphetamine, sometimes Meta is used when referring to Meth and Metatjack is used when referring to Speed cut with Meth

Most common at least in stockholm is Tjack or Sho, however Dos or Snabba skor is used often as well
 
Another is benzodiazepines

The common term ”Benzo” is used too ofc but here are some other ones:

General terms:
Habbar - Comes from the turkish word ”Hap” which means tablet
Flödder - Actually dont know if the word has some original meaning but as far as I know it originally stems from a slang for Flunitrazepam but has extended to most benzodiazepines now.
Stavar - Directly translated means a rod/staff but used to refer to a stick or in this case bars of benzodiazepines, often alprazolam
Pix - I assume comes from an old brand of square/tablet shaped candies, can refer to most benzos but more often alprazolam.

Some other common slang names for certain types of benzodiazepines include:
BlÄ - Means blue, used to refer to blue 1mg alprazolam tablets
BlÄbÀr - Blueberries, same meaning as above
”Iktos” or ”Rivarr” - A play on Iktorivil and Rivotril (clonazepam brands)
”Flunisar” - Slang for Flunitrazepam
Stess - Slang for Stesolid (diazepam brand)
 
Meth is Meth.
Freebase Cocaine is Crack or Rock.
Skittles or Molly is MDMA.
Wet or Dust is PCP, but you might get a PCP analog.
Heroin is Fent, but it isn't Heroin anymore it's just Fentanyl.
Cocaine is Coke.
Speed is Dextroamphetamine or Amphetamine.
Addies are Adderall.
Ritz is Methylphenidate.
Lucy or Acid is LSD.
Shrooms are Mushrooms.
There's different slang for other Drugs depending on what state you live in through out the U.S.

Interesting how some names started out for one specific benzo but later the meaning got extended to benzos in general huh..

I honestly can’t name a single one for benzos that I’ve heard here in the Netherlands, but benzos aren’t very ‘mainstream’ drugs wise at the moment, only know a small handful of people who also use em.

Like most dealers will just say diazepam, very rarely do I hear ‘pammetjes’ which comes from diaze’pam’ ofc but then it’s like a smaller version of the word? Idk what the term for that is, but I think it sound funny

Other than that hmm


‘Xtc’ / ‘X’ = pressed MDMA pills
Molly = MDMA crystals or powder, also commonly just referred to as MDMA

‘Tina’ = methamphetamine, usually refers to crystal form

‘Speed’ = amphetamine powder (almost always cut with caffeine)

‘Sos’ = cocaine in powdered form

‘Base’ = base cocaine, also referred to as crack, but base sounds ‘less scary’ so is more commonly used by dealers to market the stuff

Some other terms I hear and use a lot myself when speaking Dutch:

‘jonko’ = joint, especially combined into ‘jonko klappen’, meaning to smoke a joint

‘Dikke baap’ = fat joint

‘assie’ = hash
‘stronken’ = cross-faded, a combination of the words ‘dronken’ (= drunk) + stoned

‘Shoppa’ = coffeeshop, honestly don’t know if it’s just my local community using this one or if it’s a common Dutch term, but it just makes for a more discreet way to let others know you’re going to the coffeeshop to get weed or hash
 
In my home town (I live now far away) they used to call shooting "jabbing" like when you get your jabs. They also called smoking off a foil hooting and smoking c out the pipe tooting. Basically there were four drugs available in that down like as in you could head down to the square and score with no phone calls: Cocaine - refered to as gear; brown heroin - refered to as junk; and mdma used by the youth - refered to as mud, MD ,etc, and obviously the extacy pills refered to as pingers. Other drugs would come around such as ketamine reffered to as K but I believe thats pretty universal or within UK at least. obviously weed refered to as weed. Speaking of which there was none of these super potent THC fuckin mad vapes and oils and whatever the kids can get through telegram these days. There was plain simple weed (if you would ask what strain is this the fella would reply with "its weed mate"), and the resin you could put in a rig or rub and put in your J and make the thing smoke like a fuckin steam train. Besides that, if you were lucky enough to have a mate on a script you could score some pain killers or ADHD meds such as ritalin or elvanse, or valiums. The pain killers were always super weak though like codeine and I remember you would have to take a fuckin bunch like a strip or 2 and then take an antihistamine or something to get rid of the itchy scratchy sickening discomfort. It was basically what you could get and what you had the balls to take. I never tried heroin or smoked gear out the pipe. The gear makes me go fucking psych ward levels of paranoid anyway when sniffing. Also lib caps grew like 5 mins from my house and if you went miles out you would be in a field full of them to every year between september to the first frost we would be in those fields army crawling for hours. The latest I ever found a lib cap was like december 16th though lol don't know how that one survived for so long. And we also had wavy caps because our park had imported its chippings from like canada or something so we straight up had wavys in the UK. tried and tested
