How it's used

This term is a direct phonetic loan from the English word "fud" or "fudd," which was a common street name for methaqualone in the past. It is largely considered a dated term, as the drug itself is rarely encountered in modern street culture compared to other substances. Using this word marks the speaker as someone familiar with older drug terminology or someone who has been around the local scene for a long time.

Common phrases

to take methaqualone

Common mistake

Do not confuse this with the Cantonese word 唔得, which means "cannot" or "not okay." The pronunciation is distinct, but learners often mishear the initial consonant when hearing it in fast speech.
