bug

One three-letter word meaning 'tease' is 'bug', as in, 'I wish my brother wouldn't bug me so much,' or 'His brother keeps bugging him,'

An old word with the same meaning in English is 'fun', as in 'They're making fun of me,' which might once have been expressed (and still is in some regions) as, 'They're funning me,'

Another now rarely-used word for tease is 'vex'.
