short phrase expressing principle

A short saying that shows what a person or group believes or how they try to live or work.

استعمال کا انداز: [someone]'s motto is "[words]"
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "motto" with "motive" or "goal." A motto is a short sentence or phrase that expresses a belief or way of living, not the reason you do something (motive) or something you want to achieve (goal). Another mistake is using an unfinished phrase, like *"My motto is to be happy"*; it is more natural to use a short saying, such as *"My motto is 'Be happy'"*.

slogan (Often used for advertising or political messages; can sound more commercial than “motto.”) | catchphrase (Emphasizes a memorable or often-repeated phrase, sometimes humorous or linked to a person or show.) | maxim (More formal and philosophical; stresses a general rule for behavior or thinking.) | creed (Focuses on a set of strong beliefs, often religious or moral, not always in the form of a short phrase.) | watchword (Formal; a word or short phrase that represents a key idea or principle guiding action.)
