| Abstract | Sabzevar with an area of 19500 square kilometer is located in Northeast Iran, In Khorasan Razavi province. Northward, it is bounded to Quchan and Esfarayen, Eastward to Neyshabour, Southward to Kashmar and Shahrood and Westward to Semnan province. With a phonetic approach and after giving a short definition for ―"dialect", this piece of writing attempts to introduce the most prominent phonetic processes of Sabzevari dialect –one of the Western new Iranian dialects- and introduce vocal changes of this dialect compared with Standard Persian. The findings of this research show that in Sabzevari dialect ―"mutation" is the main phonetic process and ―"metathesis" is of the lowest frequency. |
