Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study the Morphological Patterns i.e. word-based model and morpheme-based model on complex words in 7-year-old Persian speaking children. The method of the research is descriptive- analytic and for collecting data, the documentary resources and the first grade course book of elementary students- “Farsi-Bekhanim” have been used. The comprehensive results of this research show that, statistically, the greatest number of words is allocated to simple words in this grade. Furthermore, in most cases, first grade complex words are according to morpheme-based model rather than word-based model.
