Person paid to influence officials
A person who is paid to talk to government leaders and try to change laws or rules for a company, group, or cause.
استعمال کا انداز:
[someone] works as a lobbyist for [an organization or industry]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes think a lobbyist is someone who works in the entrance area (lobby) of a hotel or office, like a receptionist. In modern English, 'lobbyist' almost always means a political professional who tries to influence government decisions, not someone who works in a building lobby. Learners may also confuse 'lobbyist' with 'activist'; an activist may protest in public, while a lobbyist usually works inside the political system, meeting with officials.
