Abstract

Some words in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh have meanings and applications that have significant and meaning-oriented differences from the initial idea of a modern Persian language user; and if we don't pay enough attention to them, the contents of some of the verses and phrases of Shahnameh are not clarified. In the following article, the author tries to examine the meanings of the two words "Pahlavan" and "Khadem", which are among the most used and key words in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh. Therefore, he cites examples from the text of the Shahnameh.
