niesen (weak or mixed, third-person singular present niest, past tense nieste, past participle geniest or (rare or humorous) genossen, auxiliary haben)

1. (intransitive) to sneeze

• By far the most common past participle is regular geniest. Only this form is correct by standard rules.
• Among those speakers who pronounce the verb with a voiceless [s]-sound, some few use the strong participle genossen, which is more properly that of genießen (“to enjoy”). This usage is most often humorous, otherwise quite rare.
