What is the definition of Chronic? 🙋 🔍
Marijuana, typically of high quality.
Okay class, settle down now, let’s take a look!
That dictionary definition – “Marijuana, typically of high quality” – is just 💎part💎 of the story. It’s a bit misleading, you see, and that's why we need to dig a little deeper for you.
“Chronic” has a much broader meaning than just describing weed. Think about it like this:
chronic
means something that’s
long-lasting
, something that happens
again and again
.
It describes a condition or problem that isn’t fleeting, but sticks around – it's persistent! Like a cough that lingers for weeks, or a feeling of sadness that just won’t go away.
Let's use a rhyme to help you remember: "Chronic is constant, always remembering."
It can also describe something like a 💎chronic💎 illness - a sickness that keeps coming back, needing regular attention and care.
So, while the dictionary might mention marijuana, “chronic” really speaks to a 💎pattern💎 of something being ongoing and persistent.
Do you have any questions about this? Would you like me to give you another example?
