Did you know?
- While کارآمد is the standard term, if you want to say something is 'fruitful' or 'productive' in a more poetic sense, Iranians often use ثمربخش (fruit-giving).
- If you describe a person as کاربلد (work-knowing) instead of کارآمد, you are complimenting their practical expertise and skill rather than just their efficiency.
- While کارآمد means 'efficient', Persian speakers often use the word بهصرفه to describe something 'efficient' specifically in terms of cost or energy saving.
