The style of praise and blame is one of thespecificstructuresin Arabic language and it relatively widely is used in the Quran. In this studywetried to study and express the structure and purposes and its function and we will analyze some verses with mentioned structure.In this research, we found that although this structure has no equivalent in Persian, but we can find some grammatical structures and compositions in Persian which state its themes and objectives.Since this structure sometimes expresses speaker's surprise and wonder. Structures such as: “what’’, “what + Positive adjective’’ and “what + adjectival composition’’canplay arole inthe transmission ofthis theme. On the other hand, because verbs praise and blame are emotional, structures such as positive adjectives, adjectival superlatives and adjectival composition would bean appropriateequivalentfor expressing of thespiritual meaning. Also, since the structure of the source language has the concept of hyperbole andgrandiosity.Sometimes, multiplicity adverbs such as “so’’, “so many’’, “hard’’, “adverb+ Positive adjective’’ and “adverb+ adjectival composition’’can be usedas a suitable equivalentto expressthis theme in the target language. But by studying of translation of thisstructure in the translation of some contemporary translators, we found that there is no any coordination in theselectionofequivalents by thetranslators and thisimbalanceisclearly seenin the choice of words by a translator.
