In Functional Grammar, hypothesis refers to experimental models within the framework of processes, reflecting an ideational function in language. Hence, with accordance to types of processes as well as frequency and enumeration, experiences and ideas of the writer are shown. This can be achieved by way of experimental metafunctions through transitivity, which is a mechanism of expressing these functions. The current study, which is entitled “Stylistics of story based on verb: a Functional Approach”, tackles the style and model of two stories, Deho was a Naughty Boy by Younis Ahmed and The Dying Dance by Bave Naze. This is fulfilled by the transitivity system within the framework of Halliday’s Function Grammar. For the accomplishment of the study, researchers put a hypothesis. They hypothesize that reality in both stories is given much importance, using the same style and model. They also tried to prove the fact of being true or not. Finally, researchers came to a conclusion that in The Dying Dance much importance is given to reality, which is like an individual having attention in the society. In contrast, in Deho was a Naughty Boy, focus is put on specific behavior of the individuals in the society. In other words the two story writers show different styles.

To which linguistic level (word or sequence linking words), goes back majority percentage of the spelling mistakes of the fourth grade pupils of primary? To which type of mistakes, (sensitiveness of hearing, teaching, accuracy, sensitiveness of seeing, unusual writing, upside down writing, vision sequence memory, or illiteracy), goes back majority spelling mistakes of fourth grade pupils of primary? Following points have been taken into consideration while collecting data from pupils: All the chosen children were of normal sense; the school is chosen carefully; their mother language is Kurdish and they are all monolingual; they were all chosen from fourth grade of primary, i.e. their ages ranging 1011- years old. Regarding the content of the study, the first part was devoted to theoretical scope of the study. The problem of learning spelling consists of having difficulty in writing and linking the alphabetical letters in a specific word in the right way. This problem occurs might be because the weakness of vision or hearing, environmental factors, lack of motivation, as well as, existence of phonological problems...etc.. These mistakes can be divided into following: wrong replacement of letters (because of their shape); forgetting the letters; forgetting letters which compose the words; because of hearing problems; forgetting letters that composes the word; because of misunderstanding sounds; wrong replacement of letters; as a result of misunderstanding sounds; wrong replacement of letters instead of each other as a result of replacement process; forgetting full stops; not putting full stops as a result of not recognizing the letters correctly; forgetting apostrophe. The second part of this study classifies spelling mistakes of primary fourth grade pupils. After classifying and explaining spellings of primary fourth grade pupils and comparing them on both levels, word and sequence linking words, the Researchers found that the majority mistakes were on word level: out of 373 students, while %73 (274) of them made spelling mistakes at the level of word, another %27 (99) of them made mistakes for sequence linking words. Mistakes of learners were divided into nine types: some of them are sensitiveness of hearing, teaching, accuracy, sensitiveness of vision, vision sequence memory and illiteracy. After this attempt their research was accepted. It became clear that mistakes related with sensitiveness of hearing come at first place with average (27%) ,and mistakes related with teaching type and those unreadable dictations take second place with average (24%). As indicated in the following sentence, spelling mistakes and their ratios are: sensitiveness of hearing is %27 (102); teaching %24 (90); accuracy %7 (27); sensitiveness of vision %8 (29); vision sequence memory %6 (24); illiteracy %24 (90); others %4 (15). This Study concludes that linguistic factors are the main reason behind the majority of spelling mistakes of the primary fourth grade pupils . The majority percentage of this mistakes go back to linguistic level of the word which estimated (73%).Mistakes related with sensitiveness of hearing come at first place with average (27%),and mistakes related with teaching type and those unreadable dictation come in the second place with average (24%).

This paper deals with a grammatical-discourse analysis to the story of "Meriba ye Aghay- Tenant of land lord -" on the macro-micro levels in an attempt to deal with the inter-text's cohesion factors on such levels. The study is performed according to the theories of Mac Halliday, the famous linguist. However, a full statistics to cohesion factors is taken into consideration, which is shown on the text's macro-level, duly, taking reference over macro-level and lexical cohesions, resulting in (total score of reference and lexical) 69.8% out of the inter-text's cohesion. In the micro-level, the ratio of noun-clauses is 62.8%, the verbal clauses 80.7%, and datum verbs 99.1%. These ratios harmonize with the vernacular daily language though the usage of simple sentences which rated 70.7% do not harmonize with the daily language, hence the ratio 70.7% with the other ratios create cohesion in a given text.
