FIL: Ang akto ng paghamak, paglibak, o pag-insulto sa isang tao o bagay sa pamamagitan ng mapanuksong salita o kilos.
EN: mockery, ridicule, scorn
This is the meaner, one-sided cousin of 'pagtutuyaan'. This isn't friendly 'asar' anymore; this is bullying. It's when someone scoffs at your idea, makes fun of your clothes, or dismisses you with a sarcastic laugh. It's the verbal equivalent of an eye-roll and a sneer.
From `pag-` + `tuya` (mockery).
More formal and carries a stronger, more negative connotation than 'panunukso' (teasing). It implies contempt and is generally a one-way action, unlike 'pagtutuyaan'.
