Tell me your opinion on the verb {wam}.

Would you use it, in the context of "someone being hunted" as in "someone being persecuted because of his religious/political/sexual etc orientation" ?

And if not, then what the jay' would you use instead ?

You might find a metaphorical use for wam in the context of persecution, but it would just be a metaphor.

I'd probably go with 'Irgh bully, intimidate, pick on, harass to express what you describe. lalDanDajmo' lu'Irgh they harass him/her because of his/her religion. You could express the severity of this further. lalDanDajmo' lu'Irgh; lutlha' 'ej lutIch.
