چکیده:
Qalandar is one of the unknown words in the Persian language, for which there is no correct knowledge regarding its root, derivation, and original subject. This word does not appear in many Persian dictionaries. Other dictionaries also do not help in recognizing its derivation. In some cases, a root has been stated for it through folk derivation and synthesis, which is entirely unscientific. In this discourse, using the semantic features and attributes attributed to Qalandars, as well as employing linguistic criteria, the basis of the derivation, root, and implicit concepts of the word Qalandar has been explained with reference to Persian literary works and by showing the different types of applications of this word.
خلاصه ماشینی:
In many Persian dictionaries, the word Qalandar is not seen; accordingly: Loghat Fars by Asadi was authored in the year 854.
In some Persian dictionaries and other books of this kind where the word Qalandar has appeared, explanations have been given, none of which assist in recognizing its root and original subject; accordingly: Taj al-Arus writes: "لقب جماعة من قدماء الشیوخ العجم و لاادری معناه".
There is much debate regarding the etymology of Qalandar; most authors of dictionaries believe that this word is an Arabized or modified version of Kalandar-Kalandara, meaning "an unshaped log, uneven unshaped people.
In this case, one can make use of the sum of the attributes attributed to Qalandar in the surviving works of Persian language and literature, and that aspect is the professional traveling, homelessness, and wandering of the Qalandars; this attribute is so abundant and pervasive that the structure and meaning of the word Qalandar can be searched for within this very attribute, as follows: 2-1-Homeless Qalandars The Qalandar has no home, the Qalandar has neither this nor that (Divan of Ahmad Jam, p.
We are in this era 'a wandering Qalandar and shoulder-traveler,' meaning we have passed through the entire world (Divan of Ashraf Mazandarani, p.
