You must specify which language your character is familiar with when

Like resisting disease, resisting the effects of poisons and toxins is not
a contested action.
Typically, only a single success is required on the Stamina + Resolve
roll, and this roll is modified by the toxicity of the poison in question.
In some cases, resisting the effects of a drug might be an extended
action, such as drug or alcohol abuse. In cases like these, the
Storyteller still sets the benchmark for how many successes are
necessary, and the subject's pool might still be penalized by the
poison's toxicity.
