Factors Affecting Emotional Burden of Verbs in Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh

There is a close relationship between verb and semantics and the way verbs are used to induce concepts. Poets and writers inadvertently influence their emotions in choosing actions and use verbs whose semantic load reflects the emotions and feelings of the speaker. In other words, in addition to conveying meaning, time and place, verbs convey emotions and feelings. The phonetic structure of the verb, in addition to its semantic role, indirectly expresses the concept that passes in the poet's mind through a set of sounds. In this research, the emotional burden of verbs in Ferdowsi Shahnameh is examined. It can be said that in epic books, each sentence has an emotional burden that is full of meanings of "positive, negative, and neutral". The main purpose of this study is to investigate and determine the emotional load of verbs and what its components are and the relationship between collocational elements and verbs in terms of positive, neutral, and negative emotional load. In this study, examples of verbs are neither speaker-centered nor listener-centered. Discourse is also very important, that is, the relationship between people determines the emotional burden of the verb. It also defines semantic space according to linguists’ focus on semantic differentiation. At the same time, the study of semantics in emotional actions is most important. The term semantics is generally associated with describing the meaning of words, phrases, and sentences. In linguistic terms, semantics examines the relationships between signs and symbols with concepts; and the knowledge of knowing the meaning.
