The German word for smoking is rauchen and I can't think of a more apt word for it than that; to say it, it sounds just like my voice and my breathing sounded when I was smoking at my worst. A great word to practice the more awkward sounds of the German language... a rolling R and a loch-like ch... but otherwise a horrible word for a horrible thing that sounds just like its meaning, to me at least. That's all smoking will ever mean to me now... rauchen.
