Meanings and usage

verb: to damage, to harm, to lose
損

The page lists several senses under this character (to reduce/damage, to lose, a colloquial 'mean/sarcastic' sense noted as especially Min Nan, and a Cantonese-only 'abrasion' sense); picked the core 'damage/harm' sense as most broadly applicable but the colloquial sense is also plausible for Teochew given its Min Nan labeling.
