- 1古柯鹼（台灣常用）。中國大陸較常說可卡因。
Cocaine is a strong drug, usually a white powder. People take it illegally for a fast, feeling. In a few medical settings it has been used to stop pain, because it can numb a part of the body — that use is rare now and tightly controlled. It is made from the leaves of the coca plant. Street names include coke; that everyday short form is easy to mix up with . First use of the English word appears around 1874.
From the word’s history
coca + -ine, from Quechua kuka; first used around 1874.
就是 coca「古柯」加上 -ine，coca 來自蓋丘亞語。
組成coca + -ine (a common ending for chemical and drug names), from Quechua kuka through Spanish coca. First use appears c. 1874.
