We believe that language is a systematic and interconnected set that, while integrated and organized, is constantly evolving and changing. One of the most extensive areas undergoing the evolution of this system is the semantic and structural area. Following these developments in the historical-geographical study of the words of Bayhaqi history in the East Khorasan Razavi region (Taybad), we have reached the point that although nearly a thousand years have passed since the writing of this work, today it still has words in the local dialect of the people of this region. They can have evolved in three ways: either they are used in the same way used in the history of Beyhaqi (in pronunciation and meaning), or they have undergone semantic changes along with phonetic changes, or they have changed completely semantically despite maintaining their appearance. This article examines the semantic-structural evolution of some of these words in the dialect of East Khorasan Razavi (Taybad) by field method and relying on library resources while paying attention to the study of the evolution of meaning in language. The results of the present study show that the metamorphosis of semantic-structural changes in the words of the history of Beyhaqi in the dialect of East Khorasan Razavi has been more than the type of internal transformation and due to the similarity of the words.
