How to get term knowing only its slug?

Question

WordPress

Is it possible to get data about a term with only its slug?
The most suitable thing I found is the function get_term_by( $field, $value, $taxonomy, $output, $filter );
But the taxonomy is unknown to me, nothing comes out.

Answer 1

try

get_term_by( 'slug', get_query_var( 'term' ), get_query_var( 'taxonomy' ) )
