Abstract

The present article compares the verb in the two forms of reading/writing and speaking and the necessity of teaching it to non-Persian speakers. Speakers of the language are often unaware of the changes that occur in the language throughout their lives. Considering the principle of economy and also the principle of least effort, people try to apply the easiest way and the simplest pronunciation; as a result, changes in the spoken form always occur and the written form remains constant. Linguistic changes happen in all areas of the language. In this article, phonetic changes between the spoken form and the reading/writing form in the simple present tense (the verb of Mozare Ekhbari) are examined. Due to the existence of radio and television, the ease of communication, and the almost universalization of literacy, spoken Persian has become very widespread and is used by all people; therefore, describing and compiling a book on spoken Persian is a priority after written Persian. On the other hand, non-Persian speakers who learn Persian need to learn formal spoken Persian in addition to learning written Persian, and many of them even need to learn spoken Persian only. In this study, the researcher categorized the common phonetic changes among the present tense forms, so that they can be taught in a specific order and learned more easily, simply, and quickly.
