vaping
Inhaling flavored vapor
Vaping is inhaling vapor from an electronic device that heats a liquid, typically containing nicotine.
The verb vape emerged with e-cigarettes in the 2000s, distinguishing the practice from smoking: She started vaping to quit cigarettes.
A vape is the device itself.
Vaping has become particularly associated with youth culture and flavored nicotine products.
