Systematic investigation into scientific subjects.
Contexto cultural
In Iran, the 'Week of Research' (Hafte-ye Pazhoohesh) is celebrated annually in December to honor scientists and researchers. Iranian students often use 'Tahghigh' as a general term for any homework that involves looking things up, but 'Elmi' adds a layer of prestige. The transition from Arabic 'Tahghigh' to Persian 'Pazhoohesh' reflects Iran's linguistic nationalism in the 20th century. The concept of 'Tahghigh' is also used in theology (Tahghigh dar Din), meaning one should investigate religion rather than just following parents (Taqlid).
Use 'Pazhoohesh' for extra points
In a university setting, using 'Pazhoohesh' instead of 'Tahghigh' makes you sound more like a native academic.
Don't forget the Ezafe
Without the '-e' sound between the words, it sounds like two random nouns instead of a single concept.
