Abstract:
The present paper explored the linguistic taboos in the Iranian cinema. Twenty Iranian movies in a period oftwenty years—1998 to 2018—make the main corpus of this study. To answer the research questions and analyze thedata obtained on the types of taboo words, a modified framework provided by Andersson and Trudgill (1990) wasapplied to this research. All the three types of categories presented by them, i.e., sex and bodily functions, sanctity, andanimals were used in this research, as well. Besides, the traces of five other types of death, morality, physical / mentalproblems, relatives, and unpleasant concepts were also found in the Iranian cinema. The total data collected in thisresearch showed 1262 taboos. According to the findings, unpleasant concepts with the frequency of 49.45% proved tobe the most uttered types of taboo terms. The results lend us a helping hand in a better understanding of the informalusage of Persian.
