Terms Used by Drug Dealers and Users

We have over 200 terms in our glossary of drug-related terms. Some of these terms are meant to be amusing, some are meant to be descriptive, and some are meant to be "cool." They all have one thing in common though: they all mask the true nature of the texts they feature in. Here is the one you care about:

PRIMO means "Excellent" and "Cousin." It is also a name for a marijuana joint laced with cocaine.

Excellent

PRIMO is often used as an expression of approval or admiration, to say that something is of top quality. PRIMO can be applied to almost anything, from a person's appearance or personality, to the quality of a product, or the standard of an action completed. For example:

I'm looking PRIMO tonight!
This pizza is PRIMO man.
That shot was PRIMO! Completely unstoppable.

PRIMO is similar in meaning and use to terms suchas as A1 and ace.

Cousin

In Spanish, the word PRIMO means (male) cousin. Just like cousin in English, PRIMO is used to mean "friend" (in the same way as words such as homie and bro). For example:

Juan: Hey PRIMO, how's it going?
Ellen: All good PRIMO. I've just been chilling with the PRIMOs at your mom's nephew's place.
Juan: You mean my PRIMO's place?
Ellen: That's the one.
