Definition
技巧 (jì qiǎo) refers to skillful technique or expertise gained through practice in a specific activity (e.g., negotiation, carving). It emphasizes artful execution more than 技术 (jì shù), which is broader (technology, technical skill). It is less specialized than 手法 (shǒu fǎ), which often implies a method in a particular field.
