Question

Explain the following term:

Peddler

Answer 1

The term “Peddler” generally refers to a person who sells goods or services, typically in small quantities, often travelling from place to place or selling from a cart or stand. Historically, peddlers were itinerant vendors who sold various items, such as clothes, food, or tools, to communities or individuals.

In other contexts, “peddler” could be used metaphorically to describe someone who is persistently offering or promoting something, often in an intrusive or excessive manner.
