%X In an attempt to test the prediction made by dual lexical model (Gollan, Forster, & Frost, 1997)regarding mental representation of non-cognate translation pairs (semantically similar translations) across languages with different scripts, non-cognate translation pairs were examined in a masked priming experiment across Farsi and English in L1-L2 and L2-L1direction. The results of the study showed a different pattern of priming for non-cognate as compared with Gollan et al study. The results of the study are discussed in terms of ¡°entry opening ¡°(Forster & Davis 1984; Davis, Schoknecht, & Carter, 1987) and Distributed Feature Model (De Groot ,1992).
