It compared and contrasted the forms on the basis of the relationship in family, with neighbours, guests and strangers. To meet the objectives of this study the data were collected from the 40 native speakers of Baitadeli dialect. The informants were selected through the use of judgmental non-random sampling and snowball sampling procedures from Mathairaaj and Dilashaini VDCs in Baitadi district. I selected those informants who would help me to collect required information. The data were collected with the help of interview and questionnaire. The collected data were interpreted and analyzed both descriptively and statistically. From the study, it was found out that both Baitadeli speakers and in English language formal and polite forms are used with strangers and guests. They used informal forms with junior family members, students and intimate friends while prohibiting .Similarly Baitadeli speakers prohibited younger neighbors and friends in a way that resembles ordering in English. In contrast, in English prohibition is expressed in the form of requesting. When I analyzed the collected data of Baitadeli speakers, I did not find any difference in the forms of asking for permission and prohibition used by literate and illiterate people. Baitadeli speakers used polite forms while asking for permission. In the same way polite forms are used while asking for permission in English as well. The Baitadeli native speakers used polite language with their parents and grandparents, i.e. buwa tamro laptop chalaune the chalau ta? and O ijaa, mui jaata jhau ta?. In the same way, they used polite language with their uncle, aunt, elder brothers and sisters and elder neighbors while asking for permission with them This thesis is divided into five different chapters.
