Significado
A strong feeling of enthusiasm or intense desire to do or have something.
Contexto cultural
In Iranian culture, showing 'Eshtiyaq' is a sign of being 'Garm' (warm-hearted). A person who lacks 'Eshtiyaq' might be seen as 'Sard' (cold) or unmotivated. Classical poets used 'Shawq' (the root of Eshtiyaq) to describe the painful yet beautiful longing for the divine or a beloved. When receiving a gift or an invitation in a formal setting, expressing 'Eshtiyaq' is a way to perform 'Ta'arof' sincerely. Iranian youth use this phrase ironically sometimes, but mostly it's used to show 'Zogh' (excitement) for new tech or western pop culture trends.
