Usage Note
Niquer is a vulgar verb with two main informal senses: to have sex with someone, and to break or ruin something (t'as niqué mon téléphone — 'you broke my phone'). It is highly informal and offensive in the first sense; learners should use it with great caution. It is common in verlan and suburban slang registers.
Examples
"Il a niqué l'ordinateur en le faisant tomber."
Natural Translation
