Abstract

The Balochi is considered to be one of the archaic
languages in the Iranian region. It has sustained its
morphological structure, but because of passage of time and
contact with Iranian and south Asian languages, a little bit
changed its morphological structure.
In this paper, the change in morphological structure in
Balochi will be focused in detail.
