Abstract
This paper provides an Optimality-Theoretic account of dissimilation in standardPersian as well as some other accents and dialects of Persian. As such, this work startsby introducing Optimality Theory (henceforth OT) and its basic concepts and then itinvestigates dissimilation in this framework. It argues for the superiority of OT overderivational approaches regarding a case in which both dissimilation and assimilation,with no clear feeding order, are involved.
