1 hr confidence: peer agreement (net): +4
peer agreement (net): +4snort a line (of cocaine) / snort a few lines (of cocaine) Explanation: Maria Jose, Hi. At first I thought it had to do with picking up some girls, or drag racing or something along those lines. After reading your last discussion posting saying that it actually does refer to using cocaine, in English you would say "snort a line" or "snort a few lines" of cocaine. Not a very nice term, but it is what people say to refer to inhaling (snorting) cocaine. Hope that helps! Best regards, Tonia Example sentence(s):
