What is mean about "ego -stroking " ?

Please explain to me... 한글로 알려 주시면 더욱 감사 ^^

Yes.  When you give someone any kind of compliment because you want
them to be nice to you - this is called "stroking someone's ego".  Maybe
you are not telling the truth... usually you are not being 100% honest.

when you ego-stroke someone, you are intentionally trying to make him feel good in terms of his ego -- which can mean increased pride, satisfaction, confidence -- by saying nice things to him, like praises.
