The study represents one of the social life interactions in which language is considered the major means that maintains the interaction.

Seller-buyer interaction involves effective strategies used by Mosuli speakers.

The present study aims at identifying the distinctive strategies and maneuvers adopted by sellers and buyers using different speech acts like offering, requesting, refusing, etc.

It also investigate the influence of socio-linguistic variables and their effect on sequential organization, the types and more frequent acts, style and the most frequent acts and to see whether they are similar in different situations.

To achieve these aims, the interaction of typical Mosuli seller and buyer have been analyzed.

In this study, seller-buyer interaction is seen as an instance of language use.

The study also aims to show how the seller and the buyer use different strategies like initiation, development and termination.
