Learners often confuse this with the online-argument meaning. When "troll for" is followed by words like "votes," "clients," or "compliments," it usually means "search for" or "try to get," not "provoke." It is also easy to mix up with "trawl," which is slightly more common in the phrase "trawl through data."
含义
Search widely to get something
搭配
troll for votes
|troll for clients
|troll for compliments
|troll through data

近义词
