How would you describe Japan in one word?
The answer is “wa (和)”. I am quite confident. :D This word is usually translated to “harmony” or Japan itself in English.和風: Japanese style和紙: Japanese paper和食: Japanese cousine和やか: congenial, harmonious, peaceful, amiable平和: peace (“平” literary means “flat”.)日和: climatic conditions, clear day, state of affairsNeedless to say, both good and bad harmonies are existing in the real world. People in Japan, including me, have to improve bad ones though. ₍ ᕕ( 'ω')ᕗ⁾
Where did the word marijuana originate?
IIRC, Mari[jh]uana was the term coined by Harry Anslinger to wage war against migrant Hispanic workers and black Jazz musicians. Which was just a deflection to protect the paper and cotton monopolies from hemp competition.Like many colloquialisms, it probably didn’t just originate from Mr. Anslinger himself.For posterity, here’s a few quotes attributed to the man:There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers and any others.Marihuana influences Negroes to look at white people in the eye, step on white men's shadows and look at a white woman twice.The primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races.By the tons it is coming into this country - the deadly, dreadful poison that racks and tears not only the body, but the very heart and soul of every human being who once becomes a slave to it in any of its cruel and devastating forms. Marihuana is a short cut to the insane asylum. Smoke marihuana cigarettes for a month and what was once your brain will be nothing but a storehouse of horrid specters. Hasheesh makes a murderer who kills for the love of killing out of the mildest mannered man who ever laughed at the idea that any habit could ever get him.So, you can see the inherent racism that went into banning Cannabis.EDIT: I mistakenly typed Henry, instead of Harry, Anslinger when I first posted this answer.

When and why did the word pot come to describe marijuana?
The nickname Pot comes from the Spanish word Potiguaya, which means Marijuana Leaves. It’s a Mexican-Spanish word that is a contraction of potación de guaya, which referred to an alcoholic drink made of marijuana leaves soaked in Brandy or Wine. The name became popular in the United States in the late 1930s and early 1940s.http://forum.grasscity.com/appre...

How can i describe the smell of marijuana in writing?
It's impossible to describe because there are thousands of strains of marijuana, and different strains have different smells. For the most part though, marijuana has a unique "thumbprint" to it. I can't really describe it, but when people say it smells like skunk, that's probably the closest they can get to it with actual words, and they're really talking about how it smells BEFORE it's smoked. It's like trying to tell someone who doesn't know what fresh-baked cookies smell like what fresh-baked cookies smells like. You just know. Basically, marijuana has no smell that I can relate to something most people would be familiar with. It's distinct. It DOES NOT smell like tobacco though. It smells wonderful :D If I could put it into words, it would be an oily herb smell. It lingers more than tobacco smoke in the air, and you'll know immediately that you're not smelling tobacco. Of course, we're talking about SMOKED marijuana, and not cured or fresh marijuana, which has hundreds of thousands of unique, unknown words to describe it (think of wine, and how many ways there are to describe the smell). The word "pungent" comes to mind, and that relates back to what I was saying about smelling like skunk. It's not nauseous like skunk, but it's a word used by smokers to describe both the bud (marijuana flower) and smell, so what they really mean is pungent. Some smell spicy, some like citrus, some like flowers, some have earth metal overtones, some like dirt, some smell like grass, some like burnt popcorn, some like fresh-mowed grass, etc. Basically, it's like nothing you have EVER smelled before.

What is the world described in one word?
Positive.You’re Homo sapiens 40,000 years ago. Your life is exactly the same as that of your father, great grandfather, and so on over a dozen generations.You’re Homo sapiens in 2018. How would your great-great-great grandfather react if you told him about conversations on the internet and smartphones, these forms of telepathies using a tool? Quantum physics? Supermarkets? Travel opportunities all over the world in a few hours thanks to planes? Heated houses, refrigerators, pizzas in delivery that allow you to stay with your sweetheart?He would not believe you.Every day new discoveries, technological innovations and medical advances.Here is a site that lists them: HumanProgressEach day new understandings about our past, to understand who we are and why we are, so we improve.1960: beginning of the Internet, innovation allowing the transfer of information on a global scale and thus an evolution of the knowledge and the global conscience. A human advance as significant as bipedalism, language, tools and fire.A humanity that goes globally in the right direction on almost all points (violence, famine, illiteracy etc. - see Steven Pinker "The Better Angels of Our Nature"), this despite the distorted image that gives us the omnipresent media sphere via new technologies - and that obviously only reports the bad news: fear is sellingWe must believe in ourselves to move forward. Stop seeing the human being as a disaster on legs or even a terrestrial parasite.We are the most intelligent animals on this earth, capable of the worst but also and especially of the best.Let's pause and admire the modern world. Let us give an account of our incredible luck.We are instinctively programmed to first identify what is not working well - if it were the opposite we will not have arrived here. But sometimes you have to go beyond that instinct and admire the work done. Why ? For even better progress.It's like when you create a piece of art and the audience cheers: you feel you're growing wings and you're doing better.We are impacting our land like never before, but we also discover every second how to reduce this impact; everything is rebalanced necessarily.If we are still here then we have not crossed the red line yet. We get dangerously close sometimes, but stay confident and dig our heads to improve everything.Let's not deny the dark faces of humanity, but let's highlight its most beautiful faces.
Describe a Filipino in one word.?
In Filipino, the word for “friend” is “kaibigan,” with the root word “ibig”, meaning “to love.” Putting “ka” before a rootword signifies a state of being, such as “kasama” (ka + sama “to go with”), literally “being someone to go with” or “companion”. Putting “an” or “han” after a word makes the focus of the sentence the direction of the action, such as “simba” (to worship) + “han” becomes “simbahan”, a church, literally, “a place to worship”. Thus, “kaibigan” in Filipino could literally mean, “the state of being someone to share love with”!
