smoken

1. (slang) to smoke, especially cannabis or hashish

(Usually the verb is conjugated without modifying the stem smoke (from English) in its written form, although it is pronounced as if it were spelt smookte, gesmookt. The now-obsolete native word smoken (smookte, gesmookt) was conjugated like a regular weak verb.)

From Middle Low German smôken, ultimately from Proto-West Germanic *smauki (“smoke”).
