B2 Expression フォーマル

'ala al-madd al-qasir

In the short run

意味

Over a brief period of time; in the immediate future.

🌍

文化的背景

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.

Yes, but mostly in professional settings or when discussing serious topics like politics or money.

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.
