tease
★★
🇺🇸 /tˈiz/
tease 主要表示“逗弄、戏弄”,也可指用逗弄来惹恼、吊胃口或挑起期待;作名词时指爱逗弄别人的人或一次逗弄。
💡 记忆钩子
把 tease 想成“轻轻拉一下对方的情绪或注意力”:可以是友好地逗人、故意惹人烦,也可以把期待一点点吊起来;由此还引申出用梳子把纤维或头发拉开、理顺的技术含义。
📝 学习建议
- 先掌握“逗弄、开玩笑”和“惹恼”这条主线,再学习“吊胃口”等引申义。
- 不要把 tease 一律理解成恶意欺负;具体是亲昵玩笑还是伤人挑衅,要看语气和上下文。
📖 中文释义
noun
-
core 爱逗弄的人📖 指喜欢用玩笑或小动作逗弄别人的人,既可能是亲昵的,也可能让人不舒服。💡 常用“a tease”指某人,也可说“a playful tease”。这个词本身不说明对方是友善还是刻薄,要由语境判断;不要把它自动等同于恶意欺负者。My brother is such a tease, but he never means any harm.我哥哥特别爱逗人,但他从来没有恶意。
-
common 一次逗弄📖 指一次具体的逗弄或戏弄行为,也就是用玩笑轻轻拉动别人情绪的一下。💡 常见于“just a tease”或“a little tease”这样的结构。它通常指一次行为,而不是持续的性格;不要和表示“取笑行为”这一抽象概念混为一谈。That was just a tease—I wasn't really going to hide your keys.我只是逗你玩,我并不是真的要藏起你的钥匙。
-
rare 性挑逗者📖 在成人语境中,指故意引起他人性兴奋却没有满足意图的人。💡 通常用于明确的成人或性语境,带有评价色彩。不要用它泛指普通的爱开玩笑者或吊人胃口的人。

plural
verb
-
rare 分开纤维📖 指把纤维材料拉开、拆散,使纤维彼此分离,保留了“拉扯、分开”的原始画面。💡 常用“tease apart”或“tease the fibres”。这是纺织等技术语境中的及物用法;日常谈话中不要把它当作普通的“撕开”。transitive
-
rare 梳理纤维📖 指用工具梳理纤维,使它们大致朝同一方向排列。💡 常见结构是“tease the fibres into place”。该义偏专业,宾语通常是纤维或类似材料;不要与普通的梳头混用。transitive
-
common 倒梳头发📖 指把头发向发根方向反复梳,使头发蓬松,形成倒梳效果。💡 常用“tease your hair”或“tease the hair at the roots”。这是发型语境中的及物用法;它不是普通的顺着头发梳理。transitiveShe teased her hair to give it more volume.她把头发倒梳,让头发显得更蓬松。
-
core 逗弄;取笑📖 指以玩笑方式指出或利用某人的小缺点来逗对方,可能是亲昵的,也可能变得刻薄伤人。💡 基本结构是“tease someone about something”或“tease someone for doing something”。通常直接接人作宾语;不要把所有 tease 都译成“嘲笑”,因为它也常表示友好的打趣。transitiveThe children teased Ben about his new haircut.孩子们拿本的新发型逗他。I was only teasing you.我只是逗你玩。
-
common 惹恼;烦扰📖 指通过反复逗弄或刺激使人不安、恼火,重点不在开玩笑,而在造成烦扰。💡 常见结构是“tease someone”或“stop teasing me”。语气通常比单纯的玩笑更负面;如果强调恶意和持续攻击,可能需要使用更强的表达,而不能只靠 tease。transitiveStop teasing your sister and let her finish her homework.别再烦你妹妹了,让她把作业做完。
-
common 反复刺激以左右行为📖 指通过不断的烦扰或刺激来影响某人的行为,使对方按自己的意愿行动。💡 常用“tease someone into doing something”或“tease someone out of doing something”。这种结构强调反复施加影响,不只是一次玩笑;不要误解为温和的劝说。transitiveThe children teased their father into taking them to the park.孩子们不断缠着父亲,终于让他带他们去了公园。
-
common 诱使;吊起欲望📖 指用一点点展示或刺激来引起兴趣和欲望,诱使某人想要某物或做某事。💡 常见结构是“tease someone into doing something”或“tease someone with something”。这个义项比普通的逗弄更强调诱惑和引导;不要把它简单理解成强迫。transitiveThe smell of fresh bread teased me into buying a loaf.新鲜面包的香味诱使我买了一条。
-
rare 性挑逗📖 在成人语境中,指故意引起某人的性兴奋却无意满足这种兴奋。💡 通常用于明确的成人或性语境,宾语直接指人。不要把它用于一般的逗弄、调情或宣传吊胃口。transitive
-
common 提前透露;吊胃口📖 指只透露即将出现的内容的一小部分,让人产生期待而继续等待。💡 常见结构是“tease something”或“tease that…”,尤其用于电影、产品、新闻和宣传。宾语通常是信息、内容或即将推出的事物;不要把它理解成完整公布。informal transitiveThe studio teased the new film with a short trailer.制片公司用一段简短预告片为新电影吊起了观众的期待。
