Abstract. This paper deals with oscillatory and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of second order quasilinear difference equation of the form $$ \Delta (a_{n-1}| \Delta y_{n-1}|^{\alpha-1} \Delta y_{n-1})+ F(n, y_n)= G(n, y_n, \Delta y_n), \quad n\in N(n_0) \tag{E} $$ where $\alpha > 0$. Some sufficient conditions for all solutions of (E) to be oscillatory are obtained. Asymptotic behaviour of nonoscillatory solutions of (E) are also considered.
