激

verb: to excite; to arouse; to irritate, (Teochew) to brew (alcohol)
激

The character carries many senses across Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien and Teochew (excite, brew, drown, compete, suffocate, chill); the general 'excite/arouse' sense was chosen as primary since the more specific Teochew senses are already captured by compound entries like 激酒 and 激死.
