Trochee used in a sentence

Trochee in a sentence as a noun

If you write trochees as "- _" and dactyls as "- _ _", then yours is "- - _ _".

So a trochee in the first foot is very common.

Because I can honestly say that I very well could have lived my life never having heard of the word 'trochees'.

Also in sonnets starting a line with trochee-iamb is so common you might want to accept that as metrical too. Does it use punctuation as hints?

~I am shocked--simply shocked--that poetic forms don't transfer cleanly across languages.~Iamb-out to declare that none of this really matters, trochee?

One of the questions that I could answer was to spot the odd one out in a list that looked something like: spondee, dactyl, trochee, ... If people have got worse at answering those two questions then I am not surprised.
