معنی
Over a brief period of time; in the immediate future.
زمینه فرهنگی
In the Gulf (UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia), 'short-term' often refers to the period before the next major national milestone (like Vision 2030). In Lebanon or Syria, using such formal phrases in a cafe might be seen as 'showing off' your education. Egyptian talk shows frequently use this phrase when discussing the economy and the 'patience' of the people. In Morocco or Tunisia, this phrase is heavily used in academic circles, often influenced by the French 'à court terme'.
Pair it up
Always try to follow a 'short-term' statement with a 'long-term' one to sound like a native analyst.
Avoid 'Small'
Never say 'المدى الصغير'. It sounds very unnatural to Arabic ears.

Not exactly. 'Soon' is for an event happening. 'Short-term' is for a period of time.
على المدى البعيد (In the long term).
It is masculine, which is why we use 'al-qasir' (masculine) and not 'al-qasira'.
Yes, it is understood and used, but 'على' is more idiomatic.
