뜻
Employment where one works for oneself rather than an employer, often project-based.
문화적 배경
The 'Bazaari' class is the historical backbone of 'shoghl-e azad'. They are often conservative, wealthy, and highly influential in politics and society. When a man has 'shoghl-e azad', the bride's family often asks for 'parvaneh kasb' (business license) or proof of income because there is no monthly payslip. People with 'shoghl-e azad' must pay for their own 'Bimeh-ye Khish-farma' (self-employed insurance). This is a major topic of conversation among freelancers. A new wave of 'shoghl-e azad' involves young people working in cafes with laptops. They prefer the term 'Freelancer' but their parents still call it 'shoghl-e azad'.
Use it for 'What do you do?'
If you are a student who also does some side work, saying 'shoghl-e azad daram' makes you sound professional.
Don't say 'I am free'
Saying 'Man azad hastam' means 'I am free' (not in prison or not busy), not 'I am self-employed'.

The 'Bimeh' Question
If you tell an Iranian you have a 'shoghl-e azad', they will almost always ask 'Bimeh ham dari?' (Do you have insurance?). Be prepared!
