Abstract

The data were taken by using participatory observation method  through  the  recording  and  note-taking  techniques.  By  employing  Grice’s  theory of cooperative principles and maxims, this study suggested that speech events in Egyptian society had a variety of cooperative patterns. The varied patterns could be seen in the negotiation processes to reach an agreement. Therefore, the negotiations required a lot of energy and time.
