Sondagem (de opinião) para esclarecimentos


Explanation:
sondagem de opinião ou pesquisa de opinião são equivalentes e ambos bastante usados como termo em mkt no Brasil. se você prefere ficar próximo original, sugeriria 'sondagem'. Mas, definitivamente, a sugestão dada pelo Michael Powers também está correta, na minha opinião.

probe for clarification
busque esclarecimento


Explanation:
Conforme o contexto dado, isso é uma instrução. Portanto a palavra "probe" é um verbo e não substantivo. Sugere questionar ou interrogar indiretamente para esclarecer a resposta. Neste sentido, o verbo "buscar" é apropriado.
