Zusammenfassung:One of the important concepts in the development of the language of a text is how to use linguistic tools to express the subject and achieve the author's purpose. A text is an interconnected set of different linguistic components influenced by each other. Vocabulary, syntactic and rhetorical combinations and structures are among the constituent, textual elements. The word as the smallest meaningful unit of language is one of the main components of a text on which the text’s structure and meaning depend. The choice of words in each text according to its type, structure, and goals is one of the most important linguistic issues.

Accordingly, the category of adjectives in the poems of six prominent poets belonging to the flourishing periods of praise poetry, from the beginning to the end of the sixth century, was studied. These poets are Farrokhi, Manouchehri, Anvari, Sanai, Khaghani, and Kamal Ismail, from whom twenty poems of praise were selected and analyzed. The reason for the selection was that the format of the ode is the best one for composing praise poems. Poems were also selected from among the selected poems of poets.
