The short answer

Natural language processing turns people's words into meaning a computer understands: that «بكام», «كم السعر» and «السعر لو سمحت» are one question, and that «عايز», «أبغى» and «بدي» mean the same thing. Machine translation, speech-to-text and bots that understand a free-form question rather than buttons alone all rest on it.

Why does Natural language processing matter to a seller?

Because your customers do not write in Standard Arabic: they write in their dialects, in Franco, with spelling mistakes, and they send voice notes. A bot that does not understand that repeats the same menu until the customer leaves.
