Questions and answers

Is "التَّعْرِيف" used for both "recognition" and "definition"?

Context decides: in formal contexts it means official acknowledgment; for "definition" the word "تعريف" without al- is common.

Can I say "عندي تعريفي" for "I have recognition"?

Usually you would say "لديّ تَعرِيف" or "حصلت على تَعرِيف".
