Abstract

Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh has been recited in Persian language and its goal is reviving a language that was exposed to change and annihilation following the Arabs’ attach. But, since there are words and phrases from other languages in a language so that it can keep on striving, Shahnameh, as well, is no exception to this rule. Hakim Ferdowsi has used Arabic, Turkish, Kurdish, Lurish and even other languages’ words in Shahnameh but they are yet to be recognized. This study seeks to find the roots of the Turkish, Kurdish and Lurish words and investigating their applications. It is worth reminding that such words are currently also used in their mother languages but it does not mean that Ferdowsi has definitely used these languages and that some of them might have found their ways into these languages from Persian and even from Shahnameh‎.
