Κοροϊδεύω
Κοροϊδεύω means to mock, to make fun of, or to take someone for a fool. Note the diaeresis on the ϊ, which shows that οϊ is pronounced as two separate sounds rather than the diphthong οι. It is harsher than πειράζω and rarely affectionate.
Examples in context
Μην κοροϊδεύεις τους άλλους.
Do not mock other people.
Νόμιζα ότι με κοροϊδεύει.
I thought he was making fun of me.
