Gender in the Lexicon and Morphology of Hawrami Dialect

Abstract

This paper is entitled (Gender in the lexicon and Morphology of Hawrami Dialect). It is an attempt to present and analyze the model of gender representation in the dialect. Gender has been used as a hyponym for sexual, grammatical and social dimensions. The research steps were conducted within the boundaries of the gender and grammatical dimensions and the research work began with the lexicon, since the lexicon contains the background of linguistic and non-linguistic information in its primary materials and mono lexical elements. Identifying the content of these gender-related lexicons shows us to which dimensions the forms have gender markings from the lexicon. From there, the process of gender representation can be tested again in the grammaticalization of the cultural element, especially in the morphological structure Morphologically (the morphology of creation and Inflection ) is how the gender complementary system works, so the process is involved both as transfer, interpretation and Inflection. The research was conducted according to the descriptive method of analysis and the research materials were taken from Hawrami dialect.
