I have never ever heard a common British person call it marijuana or cannabis unless it was in a sarcastic manner as in “Oop you smoking a bit of the marijuana?”
It’s always weed, lean, green or something other slang term.
Well, this was in the context of a narrator clinically (yet also overdramatically) describing a person developing a “serious habit” of smoking weed, as if it’s the same thing as being addicted to fucking heroin or crack.
Brits never use the term marijuana. They’re familiar with it from American media etc, but they call it Cannabis in UK and elsewhere.
You’re completely right. I knew something didn’t sound right, when I was replicating the narrator voice.
