Emotion and Mind
محرک
/ moharrak /
noun · motivator, motive
Meaning
معنی۱
محرک shows up in two registers Iranians keep apart: the courtroom and the therapist's office. Iranian crime journalism leans on the word heavily. Headlines about a killing will spend a paragraph speculating about the محرک, and the absence of a clear محرک is itself the story. Tabloid courtroom dramas in Tehran have built a whole vocabulary of محرکهای احتمالی (moharrek-hâ-ye ehtemâli) "possible motives."
