Signification
A recently acquired ability or expertise.
Contexte culturel
There is a strong emphasis on 'polymathy' or being 'Hame-fan-harif' (master of all trades). Iranians often take pride in having many 'maharat-e jadid'. In Afghanistan, 'maharat' is used similarly, but you might also hear 'shagerdi' (apprenticeship) when referring to learning a new trade skill. Tajik Persian uses 'malaka' (малака) alongside 'maharat'. 'Malaka-i nav' is the equivalent of 'maharat-e jadid'. The 'Soft Skills' (مهارتهای نرم) vs 'Hard Skills' (مهارتهای سخت) distinction is very popular in Tehran's startup scene.
