Correct! The plant name Cannabis is from Greekκάνναβις (kánnabis), via Latincannabis,[1] originally a Scythian or Thracian word,[2] also loaned into Persian as kanab. English hemp (Old Englishhænep) may be an early loan (predating Grimm's Law) from the same Scythian source.wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etymology_of_cannabis
It was originally from Sanskrit, but the intermediate language family was Scythian, which is an Iranian dialect derived from sanskrit.
