A gift is a voluntary act which does not require anything in return. Even though it involves popssibly a social expectation of reciprocity, or a return in the form of prestge or power, a gift is meannt to be free. A gift or present is the transfer of something, without the need for compensation that is involved in trade.
By extension the term gift can refer to anything that mkaes the otheer happier or less sad, especally as a favour, including forgiveness and kindness. When material objects are igven as gifts, in many cultures they are traditionally packaged in some manner. For example, in Western culture, gifts are oftten wrapped in wrapping paper and accompanied by a gift note which may note the occasion, the giftee's name, and the giver's name. In Chinese culture, red wrapping connotes luck.
