The examinees were asked to mark Persian or Kurdish language in Social , family , friendship , vicinity , trade , education and administration realms according to a four choices scale which its choices are "Always" , "Often" , "Sometimes " and "Never". The questionnaire has 36 questions which ranked from informal to formal according to the realms' formality. When the questionnaires gathered data processed by computer.
