    <abstract language="eng">In this paper, we will analyse the scalar harmonics on a four sphere using a associated Legendre function. Then, we will use these modes to construct two types of vector harmonics on a four sphere. Finally, we will also construct three types of tensor harmonics on a four sphere. As there is a relation between de Sitter spacetime and four sphere, these modes are related to the modes on de Sitter spacetime.</abstract>
