The title of the research is ‘Semantic Representation in Morphological structure in the Kurdish Language.’ The study begins its stages through the lexicon, and it is put forward on the basis of the idea that morphological knowledge is found in the lexicon. This means that as well as morphological, syntactic and semantic knowledge, the speaker of the language has morphological knowledge. Morphological structures and forms have been used in the research in order to display this knowledge. In order to achieve morphological structures, work has been conducted on coined and compound words in order to determine the composition and through it the semantic representation in these structures is determined. Semantic representations were tested at four levels, and it was proved that the semantic representation with its level, lexical significance, structural and non-structural, has four poles. Each pole has a different semantic representation. In the upper representation, the meanings are morphological, and at the bottom they are lexical. The research was based on defining the form and semantic representations on the morphological and semantic production. The research steps were conducted according to the descriptive analytical method.
