Since suicide notes are the only reliable documents in suspicious deaths named as suicide in special branches, determining whether they are real or fake may play undeniable role in recognition of murder and subsequent judicial decisions in initial stages. The question is that “what approaches except common ones such as fake, handwriting as well as signature expertise can be used to recognize fake or real notes in our country with experimental history than scientific”? Since content notes are filled with words and phrases called “linguistic inputs”, legal linguistics can be considered internationally alongside with other sciences as forensic medicine and forensic psychiatry and its findings in legal fields indicates a new and scientific approach in determining fake or real notes.In this paper, we are going to identify more repeatable contents in notes by analyzing 30 real notes using Brown& Clark thematic analysis and test the findings by Binomial test to introduce more repeatable and generalizable contents as distinctive features of real notes.

Knowing the genres and sub-genres of Persian poetry is a fundamental issue; The present study, with the aim of helping the typology of contemporary Persian poetry, introduces the "nestless subject" as a stylistic feature of a part of new and white poetry called political-critical poetry. The study and typology of political-critical poetry of four prominent contemporary poets - Nima Yoshij, Akhavan Sales, Shamloo and Shafiee Kadkani.By asking the questions of what frightening objects the rejection has become in reality in the poem and through what discourses the rejected subject has rejected and rejected power as a contaminated thing, and finally how within the network. The power complex has taken hold and created points of resistance. By studying contemporary poetry based on the above theory, the results of the research show four types of poetry:Nima Yoshij's political-critical poetry genre is hopeful, compromising, and compromising. The poem of Mehdi Akhavan Sales shows a necessary, lonely and irreconcilable resistance, the rejection of identity of which is evident in its political discourse; Hence, we classify the Brotherhood's poetry as fighting and anger. In Shamloo's poetry, the subject is in a constant struggle between life and death, and death is the predominant aspect of his political-critical poetry. Mixed; Hence, we consider the title of critical-lyrical poem suitable for it, and finally, in Shafi'i critical poetry, the coding of hair and the pain of losing its glory and long-standing glory are prominent, so we call his critical poetry painful glories.

Basically, sign and meaning in language science complements each other and each one does not count anything without another, Attar in a discourse that provides fire in their mystical works, A species of signs is evident that the fire is not only in the position of a heated warfare, which also occurs in the position of the meaning and meaning, which is further investigated in the field of linguistic substitution. Our main questions are that the fire in the poetry of Attar Neishaburi finds, how to flow and expands; Also how fire can make meaningful and mean meanings and values; Also, fire and correlations are related to which semantics signs, such as tension, perceptual, emotional and aesthetic systems? In this process, symptoms are commonly used in transplantation with seminal fluid, dynamic and multidimensional. This method is able to reveal the alternative reading of literary and mystical texts. Investigating Attar's works shows that he has a new approach to phenomena, including fire in perceptual transplantation, and beautiful concepts and concepts. Attar in this linguistic approach, the fire from the constructive semiotics has led to a sign of fluid semantics. The purpose of this article is to examine the meaning of 'fire' in the works of Attar Neishaburi, which has been done in descriptive analytical manner. According to this research, a military can be achieved for better understanding of concepts associated with the sign of fire in Attar Nezhaburi poetry.

One of the characteristics in each language (or, more precisely, the speakers of each language) is that it changes the loan words and names, so as to both assimilate them into its phonological system to be pronounced and give them the vernacular taste and color in accordance with its specific characteristics. In the meantime, proper names come from areas where they are not translated and borrowed between languages. The present study investigated the phonological changes of single-part first loan names in the endangered species of Esfidani (village in Bojnourd) Turkish. To this end, modified loan names were first collected from among the villagers’ names. Each of them was then compared with their form in standard Farsi language and the phonological processes performed were identified and classified. Subsequently, the phonological or pragmatic motives of each name were discussed. The phonological processes of deleting vowels, consonants or a chain, lenition, raising and fronting were the most prominent types of processes in the localization of data. The findings showed that there exist various motivations behind these changes: some of them were due to the assimilation into the Turkish phonemic system and some had pragmatic reasons.

With the emergence of Covid-19 in 2020 metaphorical conceptualization of coronavirus has been the focus of several investigations into the role of the cognitive system in understanding a novel, unknown and mysterious concept. However, previous research ignored the role of other operations of conceptualization such as force-dynamics (FD), which seems to be a foregrounded element in the thinking of coronavirus. Grounding on Kövecses’s combined model of conceptual metaphor theory (CMT) and FD, this study seeks to reveal the substantial role of FD in interpreting the metaphors framing Covid-19. The present study sets out to determine if there is any constant correlation between CMT (Lakoff & Johnson, 1989) and FD (Talmy, 2000) to gain a deep understanding of Covid-19 metaphors. In doing so, the current paper used the findings of the previous research, revealing source domains, through which conceptualization became possible. The source domains that gain attention in this study include WAR, FIRE, NATURAL FORCE, and WILD ANIMAL, all imbued with some degree of force. Our findings provide a solid evidence base to highlight the close relationship between CMT and FD and contribute to a better understanding of metaphorical expressions of coronavirus by illuminating the role of force entities and their tendencies.

Poetry discourse analysis allows the reader to become aware of the poet's worldview, ideas, beliefs and mental imagery. This issue is doubly evident in relation to Shiite and Ashura poetry, which is often based on the emphasis on the positive pole of the "self" and the marginalization of the negative pole of the "other." The composition of Mohtasham Kashani is one of the masterpieces of Persian literature in which the bipolar system of emphasis and marginalization plays an essential role in shaping its discourse. Since this work was formed in response to the oppression that was inflicted on Imam Hussein (AS) and those around him in the event of Ashura; Thus, its text becomes a linguistic network in which the identity of the "self" is highlighted and the identity of the "other" is marginalized due to the interpretive dimension of the signs and the esteemed awareness of the power of language and levels of discourse. In the present study, an attempt is made to investigate the discourse system of Mohtasham's composition by relying on descriptive-analytical method and by referring to Vandic's theory of critical discourse analysis. The horizontal section of compositional discourse shows that the marginalization of another identity is the prominent pole of compositionalization (61%), which is reinforced by vertical sections that include levels of meaning, propositional structure, grammar, and reasoning.

Compound verbs are one of the most frequent types of verbs in Persian and have been the subject of many researches. This type of verb is actually a compound predicate that consists of a verbal component and one (or more) non-verbal component that, together, express a meaning. In this article, we provide a model for the structure of compound verbs in Persian based on the theory of Distributed Morphology. It becomes clear that in the structure of compound verbs, an abstract root is considered for each component. These roots have no syntactic category and phonetic essence and are only a chain of semantic features. At first, roots merge in their base position according to Minimalism Program and pass the known syntactic processes in the theory. After that, they undergo post-syntactic processes on the basis of Distributed Morphology. Finally, the syntactic nodes are prepared for the insertion of Vocabulary Items (VI). It is shown that the root related to the non-verbal component is merged in the head of the predicate group (PredP) and bears the main burden of predication in the sentence. This group is in sister position to the vP. The verbal component of the compound verb is merged into the head of vP.

The position of internal arguments of a verb is a Language specific point. In Farsi, the position of internal arguments to one another in ditransitive constructions is considerable and distinct from double object constructions in other languages. In generative grammar object movement differing from scrambling and occurred in Some languages as Scandinavian Languages is called object shift. In this operation, based on Holmberg (1986) object raises to an upper position. In farsi, karimi (2005) and Anoushe (1400) believe that specific and with ‘ra’ direct objects move to upper position than indirect objects. In the present study beyond the border of theoretical linguistics, based on experimental data and with the help of two psycholinguistics tests as Grammatical Judgement Test and self-paced reading also based on Derivational Theory of Complexity of Marantz (2005), we intend to show that direct object (with ‘ra’) shift is occurred in ditransitive and secondary predicate constructions producing unmarked sentences but indirect object do not shift. Any other object movements except object shift are occurred just because of discourse motivations producing marked sentences.
