#Tip 3.
Sentences may be declarative, interrogative, imperative, or exclamatory.
1. A declarative sentence declares or asserts something as a fact.
- Dickens wrote “David Copperfield.”
- The army approached the city.
2. An interrogative sentence asks a question.
- Who is that officer?
- Does Arthur Moore live here?
3. An imperative sentence expresses a command or a request.
- Open the window.
- Pronounce the vowels more distinctly.
4. An exclamatory sentence expresses surprise, grief, or some other emotion in the form of an exclamation or cry.
- How calm the sea is!
- What a noise the engine makes!
A declarative, an interrogative, or an imperative sentence is also exclamatory, if it is uttered in an intense or excited tone of voice.
