Hey, it's taquiner. It's a regular verb and means to tease or pick on. It tends not to refer to any nasty teasing or anything malicious, just light hearted fun at someone's expense.
An example of usage, pulled from a random French site is:
"Nan, je le taquine... ben, des fois je l'insulte!"
"Nah, I tease him. Well, sometimes I just insult him"
Shows the difference between something light-hearted and something a bit more offensive. Hope this helps!
