The Inflection of Verb and its Categories in Kalhori Kurdish from Bauer's Generative Morphology Perspective

The present study aims to investigate the inflection of verb and its categories from generative morphology perspective. The nature of the methodology of this qualitative research is descriptive-analytic, and data has been collected through interview with Kurdish language speakers, and then the authors have analyzed them based on the generative morphology. The authors have tried to analyze the inflectional categories of verb encompassed mood affixes, negation affixes, and personal affixes. This study is going to seek a suitable answer to this question that how the inflection process can be applied on verbs in Kalhori Kurdish and what is the constraint on this category in this dialect inflectionally. This article is going to find out how the views of morphologists, such as Bauer (1996) can justify the inflection on the category of the verb in this dialect. The results showed that the inflection of verb is fully justifiable in Kalhori Kurdish from Bauer's generative morphology.
