What 揄 means
It is a compatibility form of 揄, not a separate everyday word.
A dictionary compiled in the Eastern Han explains 揄 as “draw” or “pull.” Later records extend the verb to moving, taking out, shedding, or throwing, and use it in the name of a ceremonial robe, 揄狄.
揄 preserves a mapping for round-trip conversion with the Korean character-set standard KPS 10721-2000, where it bears the source label KP1-469B. It points to 揄 rather than creating a new meaning.
Does 揄 mean mocking or teasing?
Its sense depends on the language and surrounding words.
Chinese references preserve older senses of drawing, moving, or taking something out. Japanese dictionaries also record teasing or pulling, especially in 揶揄. Read the sentence in its own language; the compatibility glyph does not settle the sense.
What if someone sends it by itself?
Ask for context; it has no reliable standalone reading.
It may be legacy text or a character detached from surrounding words. Do not treat 揄 alone as meaning “mockery.”
Technical or archival; in ordinary prose, 揄 looks like a character-set artifact unless its source explains why it appears.
Do not read it as “mockery” by itself; teasing is a sense of 揶揄, not a universal meaning of 揄.
