I teased her

[hhtt21]

- You know, said Kristy Thomas, I have never been hit in the face with a pie.
- Imagine that I teased her. Sweet thirteen and never been hit. What a tragedy.

My friends and I laughed. I cannot understand correctly what I teased her is. Are they made fun of her?

Thank you.

Only if hhtt knows what a double entendre is.;-)

 

[andrewg927]

Yes. They made fun of her.

 

[hhtt21]

Yes. They made fun of her.

Is it also chaff here?

Thank you.

What does chaff mean? I only know it as a noun meaning "the part of the grain that you discard".

hhtt21 probably found something like this:

1. to tease;
   ridicule slightly;
   kid:
   
   ​
   The schoolkids liked to chaff him about his ears.
   
   ​
   just chaffing around.

(Random House Learners' Dictionary of American English)

It's not used much these days. [link]

I'm surprised to see that listed as an American word. I assumed it was a British English usage I wasn't familiar with.
