To Trick
To Deceive
transitive verb, godan verb
Because the hiragana ends with an う sound, you know this word is a verb. The kanji itself means trickery, so the verb vocab version is to trick or to deceive.
騙す means to trick or deceive someone by making them believe something that isn't true. It carries a clearly negative nuance, since it always involves deliberate dishonesty. Note that this word is also commonly written in kana as だます.
The reading is the same as the one you learned with the kanji. Seriously, we're not tricking you — it's the same.
