Abstract

Hanashur is one of the villages in Tasuj Rural District, Shonbeh and Tasuj District is in Dashti County, Bushehr Province. The Hanashuri dialect is a Persian language variety in Bushehr Province. Interviews with native speakers, recording their speech and phonetics, have been used to complete the linguistic corpus of the research with field and descriptive-analytical methods with library tools to conduct this research, and the necessary information has been collected, reviewed, and analyzed using these methods. In this research, the analysis of the verb system and the understanding of the characteristics of its constituent components, the conjugation of verbs in the present aspect, mood, and tenses in Hanashuri have been considered. The results of the research show that the verb forms are from the past or non-past root and, like standard Persian, are classified in terms of type into auxiliary, lexical, and impersonal. The verb conjugation is in the past and non-past tense. The future tense does not exist in standard Persian, and the same present indicative is used for it, and the distinction between the two is made according to the context. All aspects of the indicative and non- indicative Finite and Non-finite verbs and the aspects of standard Persian are also seen in Hanashuri. Unlike most dialects of Dashti, the ergative feature is not seen in the Hanashuri dialect.
