longitudinal wave
waves in which oscillations take place along the direction of propagation of wave e.g.sound wave.
transverse wave
waves in which oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of wave e.g.EM wave

In longitudinal wave the wave compression and rarefaction is oscillate in the direction of wave traveling direction.for example sound waves
In transverse wave the electric and magnetic fields are propagating perpendicular to each other and both fields are perpendicular to the direction of wave traveling. for example electromagnetic waves like visible light
