A
gift or present is the transfer of money, goods, etc.,
without the direct compensation that is involved in
trade, although possibly involving a social expectation
of reciprocity, or a return in the form of prestige
or power. In many human societies, the act of mutually
exchanging gifts contributes to social cohesion. Economists
have elaborated the economics of gift-giving into
the notion of a gift economy. By extension the term
gift can refer to anything that makes the other more
happy or less sad, especially as a favor, including
forgiveness, and kindness (even when the other is
not kind). A gift may either be an ordinary object
or an object created for the express purpose of gift
exchange, such as the armbands and necklaces in the
Trobriand Islands' Kula exchange.
A gift can also be a special talent or ability that
was not earned through the usual amount of long and
difficult practice but instead comes easily to the
recipient in a natural way. A person with such a gift
is said to be "a natural" or "gifted"
in that field of endeavor. A gift, in this sense,
can be thought of as being given by God or by nature:
a God-given or natural gift received by one at birth.
For example, a fluent and entertaining speaker is
said to have "the gift of gab". |
