In general Ta̕̕ ziye and Shabihe are used interchangeably provided they are to some extent different. By the evolution of these two popular types, satire and humor have been emerged in Shabihhe. Also, it has been appeared a kind of educational –dramatic genre which was tragic, funny and was called ridiculous Ta̕̕ ziye as well. Ashqya humiliation, relief and scorn of Shiite mourning and mockery of symbols of power are among the functions of satire and humor in Ta̕̕ ziye. Some features of satire and humor language in Ta̕̕ ziye and Shabihe are: Antonymy , exaggeration , zooming out and colloquial form of everyday language.
