Ross

I believe the answer is:

tease

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">I believe this is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">taunt</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that taunt can be written as tease)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">bait</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that bait can be written as tease)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for tease that I've seen before include "Banter, provoke gently" , "Cod" , "Twit - flirt" , "Gently make fun of (someone)" , "Rag" .)
