TELEPHONE A DRUG TERMINOLOGY-GENERAL GLOSSARY (213) 974-5401 INTRODUCTION English-Spanish/Spanish-English

with The growing number of drug and alcohol related cases

Eight Special Sections entering the criminal justice system necessitated the development and of a comprehensive glossary of narcotic, drug and alcohol related A Selected and Annotated Bibliography terms.

The large Spanish speaking population in Los Angeles County

compels the preparation of a glossary that could be used by court

interpreters and others associated with the justice system.

In conjunction with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's

Department~ the court initiated this project to provide a valid

and exhaus~ive list of drug and alcohol related words used in the

criminal justice system. We hope this glossary will prove helpful.

To the best of our knowledge this is the first such glossary

developed specifically for use in the criminal justice system. The

authors -- Alexandre Rainof, Ph.D., Alberto Natividad, Joseph V. A.

Partansky, and Gilbert Geilim -- are to be commended for their RICHARD SCHAUER, Presiding Judge dedication, originality, and the excellence of their work. We are FRANK S.

INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE AUTHORS METHODOLOGY USED - We studied a great variety of sources including technical dictionaries, slang dictionaries for the various regional dialects (California, Texas, Cuban and other Spanish speaking countries), various narcotics glossariE!s developed by law enforce Mr .. Gilb~rt Geilim completed his studies at the University of ment and other public agencies. Many of these materials were found Cal~forn~a, Los Angeles, and is at present in his second vear to be obsolete (terms not used since the 1930's) or of little help o~ Law School. He is an Interpreter for English and Spanish for a variety of reasons. Consequently, a selected and annotated w~th the Los Angeles County Superior Court. bibliography was added.

We tried to span the entire range of terminology from scientific to street.

Street terminology was checked with both bilingual (Spanish-English) and English speaking Sheriff's deputies assigned to the Narcotics Bureau, and more specifically those working the streets. Further checking was done with interpreters from the California Court Interpreters Association working every day with narcotics cases in the Los Angeles Courts, and with defendants charged with narcotics violations.

For certain drugs, such as marihuana, known under a great variety of terms, only the most prevalent terms were incorporated in the general glossary. An exhaustive listing appears in the Special Sections. In spelling, we have chosen, somewhat arbitrarily, to spell marihuana with an "h" in English and a "j" in Spanish, even though the spelling exists in both Spanish and English with "h", "j", and "g".

SPECIAL SECTIONS - Eight special sections were developed to enable those using this publication to find the specific term tbey need rapidly. It also prevents the general glos~ary from being unduly cumbersome.

Our task has been to develop a bilingual working tool in which English terms are given their Spanish equivalents and vice versa. It has not been to compile an encyclopedia of drug terminology with definitions, etc. However, for those interested in defini tions and a more general approach to narcotics, the Selected and Annotated Bibliography will prove a basic starting research tool. Even though we listed those terms currently used in narcotics matters, we have not made a frequency study. Most of the terms are used often but a frequency study falls outside the scope of our project. Perhaps linguists in the future might add their expertise to this research.

In short we tried to make the publication both as complete and as streamlined as possible, with a constant concern for making it a working tool for those who find themselves involved, on a daily basis, in dealing with narcotics related matters. There are plans to update this publicatio~ in view of the constant linguistic changes in street terminology, every two years.
