| Abstract | ||
| Rap music is one of the current discourses in Iran, which entered Iran in the late 70s and established a new culture. One of the characteristics of this music is the special words used in its lyrics. It seems that rappers are trying to create their own language by combining foreign words and Persian secret language to establish their own identity in the society. The purpose of this study is to identify the processes of word formation in this type of songs in order to know the intellectual atmosphere of this culture. In this study, 20 Persian rap songs were used to extract the desired dates. These samples include all four generations of Iranian rap music. After analyzing the dates, the most important processes of word formation in this type of language were: coinage, extension, borrowing, reduplication, abbreviation, compounding, acronym. Keywords: rap songs, the processes of word formation, borrowing, extension | ||
