Abstract
Giegerich (1999) refers to "lexical morphology and phonology" theory as an "affix-driven" model, because in this model the properties of a group of affixes specify the properties of each stratum. He also introduces another model to which he refers as a "base-driven" model in which each stratum is defined based on the properties of the base. This synchronic study investigates affixation in Persian in order to see which model best works in analyzing this process of word-formation. The outcome clarifies that the "base-driven" model can account for affixation in Persian more successfully than the "affix-driven" model.
