Significado
The development and improvement of technology, leading to new inventions and methods.
Contexto cultural
Iran has a very high number of engineering graduates per capita. Consequently, 'پیشرفت تکنولوژی' is a constant topic in national media and a source of significant national pride, especially in fields like nanotechnology and aerospace. In the Persian-speaking diaspora, this phrase is often used to compare life in Iran with life in the West, often highlighting how apps and digital services have evolved differently (e.g., Snapp vs. Uber). There is a linguistic movement in Iran to replace 'Teknolozhi' with 'Fan-āvari' to preserve the Persian language from too many loanwords. You will see this 'cultural war' in textbooks.
