This study deals with word formation in English and Persian Languages with special reference to Affixation processes such as Prefixation, Infixation, and Suffixation, and Compounding processes involving Three Words, Common Nouns, and Hamkards. It throws some light on the importance of word formation in Persian, its influence on other languages, borrowed terms and phrases and references to word building techniques such as affixing and compounding to derive new words from roots. In addition, this study focuses on how new words are constantly derived by merging two existing words into a new word, the differences between verbal suffix and objective suffix.

Fills a gap in cross-linguistic research by being the first systematic survey of the word-formation of the world's languages. Data from fifty-five world languages reveals associations between word-formation processes in genetically and geographically distinct languages.
