| Summary: | Â Abstract
Nowadays technology has extended all over the humanâs life and has affected even his language. It seems that a new language is propagated within people especially among youth which utilizes the words or compositions related to technology. Metaphor, metonymy and is used in these compositions. These words were first applied in ironies but later on it has been perceived in people conversations and even within the poems. The primary goal of this paper is to investigate the Today â s language structure and also the effects of technology on the language. Ahmad Aziziâs poems are chosen for this study. In this content the main question is how greatly the human and machine relation is affected the human conversation and specifically on the Ahmad Aziziâs poems. The theory in the current paper is that there should be a relation between the technology and language in Ahmad Aziziâs poems. The method here is to find and study the effect of words related to technology, such as automobile and its content, telephone and other means of communication devices and also urban lifestyle, within the Ahmad Aziziâs poems. Investigations related to stylistics often perform in three methods of language, music and literature studies. However, in this paper we focused on the words and literature points and do not investigate the grammar and music. This research is merely descriptive and is not looking for the reasons for using those specific words. Ahmad Azizi made a breakthrough in utilizing the Today â s language. There are several words in his poems related to urban lifestyle and its hardships such as metro trains, highways, buses, speeding and traffics. There are a numerous effects of technology on human lifestyle, eating habits, costumes and human manners. Words which are related to machine parts such as âsag dastâ or âachar kalaghiâ and etc can be seen in his poems. Even compositions like ârip zadanâ, âcheragh dadanâ, âaab va roghan ghati kardanâ and etc is used. The products trademarks are also seen in some poems. Here technology not only interferes in creating words but psychologically changes the human ideas. The new words are generated by cutting the words into pieces and changing their meanings or it can be generated by metaphor and metonymy which obtain a new intended meanings. From the moral point of view the new words and compositions are rather objections to the current society situations, called âargoâ. The Ahmad Aziziâs method in using new words is somehow to continue predecessorsâ method.
 Finally, according to new word creations in Today â s language we propose to include the machine metaphor to Rhetoric.
