The present study evaluated and analyzed the review of Ābān Yašt (The Centre for Great Islamic Encyclopaedia, Tehran 2013) which was written and published by E. Changizi in the Journal of Language Science (vol. 2/3, autumn 2015). The reviewer divided his subject matter into ten entries and dealt with them in detail. The entries were: 1- Phoneme or grapheme; 2- the root *āhi-; 3- statement of the problem and significance of the study; 4- enclitic; 5- the copula verb "is"; 6- the relative pronoun ya-; 7- translations; 8- syntactic issues; 9- combination or compound; 10- the tone of writing. The present article discussed and evaluated all these entries in order to show that the reviewer’s reasoning and his deductions and conclusions were incorrect.
