The two dots are an 'umlaut mark', as in Doppelgänger.

In French it's mostly the same. "Weed" is herbe, pronounced with a silent h, like "airb"

shits all the same

in portuguese it is maconha(pronounced mawconia), and some people call it beck, or herva(pronounced airva)

in russian it is "trava" (pronounced "travah") (english=herb). also it is "ganj" (pronounced "gansh"). also there are many other words like "ganjubas", "konoplya"=cannabis, "shishki"=buds. Kasha, zharyoha, kuzmich - fried with oil, sugar or without it. Managa - boiled with a milk. Plan ['plAn] - pollen rolled into a lump (i don't know english equivalent).

Yep China its known as DaMa. All the drugs are classified under that one word from what I know. If I mention it to a chinese person they think I'm talking about the off topics.

China has a medicine shop on every street. All of them sell some natural remedies, most chinese medicine is made from natural medicine. They sell Cordyceps(sp) here extremely expensive, like $100US an eighth. For those of you who don't know , its a mushroom that grows out of the brain of a caterpiller. It increases your oxygen intake capibilities of your blood and helps blood flow. China has the big natural medicine market, its sad that they were influenced by the US to ban it. Maybe they can rediscover its potential.

In south africa we have quite a few names, mostly coming from afrikaans or some black language, all I can remember right now is dagga and boom. Dagga coming from Zulu, and boom coming from Afrikaans, meaning "tree".

in indonesia, we call it "ganja" or "baba"

I'd always heard the word "Plan" used in Russian. As In Samarkand Plan.
Don't think there's an equivalent in English. We Turkestani's (Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Tadjiks,) etc have been using weird variations of Cannabis for a million years.

It's sort of ingrained in our D.N.A.
The Uyghur word for Hemp is Kendir, BTW. It more refers to the plant when it's used for the akenes and fibre, but what the hell.
No, I don't know Borat personally.
