You mean, you clicked the "Like" button? You could say

I Liked it

or

I "liked" it.

Thank you. It's kindof easier in borrowing languages.

You take the verb stem (like) and surround it by conjugation:

Hij liket. Ik heb het geliket.

Or you absorb the -e into the conjugation:

Liken. Wij liken.

Liken. Wir liken.

Liker. Tu likes. Je l'ai liké.

Or drop the -e altogether, risking faulty pronunciation:

Nous likons.

Er likt. Er hat es gelikt.

But we don't have to "isolate" or Capitalise them ;-)

But you lose the semantic transparency. Compare:

"I think he likes me!" "Does he just like you, or does he _like_ like you?"
(The former suggests mere friendship, the latter something more.)
(And it's not "Does he, like, like you?")

But the Dutch (largely Netherlands-only?) word "leuk" is probably not
cognate with "like", rather with "lukewarm". Not hot not cold is nice,
funny and agreeable in Dutch. Typical of our culture, I guess.
