comment

According to Трубачев (ЭССЯ 13: 268, the Slavic verb, represented in the Rus. кирять and Pol. kirzyć, are related with the verb *kuriti which shows in regular alternations. In both languages the verb has been preserved in the thief's argot.

Эта гипотеза Трубачева, на которой он сам не настаивает: (http://www.philology.ru/linguistics3/trubachev-94.htm), не очень убедительная. Значение smoke tabacco у рус. курить - производное (от "дымить"). На том этапе этапе, к которому возводится родство (праславянском), его очевидно не было. Да и чередование i/u тоже сомнительное. Я бы эту реализацию как минимум подвесила. (АЗ)
