Considering the role and importance of tense recognition in language learning the aim of the current study is to investigate the types of cues used to recognize the grammatical tense by Arabic-speaking Persian learners at the beginner and advanced levels. The relationship between the understanding of the time of Persian sentences and gender, as well as the relationship between the understanding of tense and the first language of Persian learners, has also been investigated. This research was conducted based on the lexical precedence principle of the input processing theory of VanPatten (2015). The participants of the research, who were selected as available random sampling, were 53 Arabic-speaking Persian learners who were divided into two groups, beginners and advanced based on their level. The instruments used in this research were two tests in two stages; in the first stage, using the sentence recognition test, the subjects marked the tense of the sentences they heard in the answer sheet, and in the second stage, the same test was performed; with the difference that in this test, the sentences did not have time adverbs. The findings of this research show that beginner learners use both lexical cues and verbal inflections in recognizing the tense of a sentence; but in most cases, their choice is only one of the cues. This is while advanced level subjects simultaneously use two lexical cues and verbal inflection. Regarding gender, the results showed that there is no significant relationship between gender and the ability to understand sentence time.
