Objectives
A sentence is a word or group of words
that expresses a complete thought.
Sentences are often categorized according
to their use and purpose.
What is a sentence?
There are four types of sentences in the
English language: declarative, imperative,
exclamatory, and interrogative. These
sentences can be used to make a
statement, issue an order or request,
express an emotion, or pose a question.
A declarative sentence makes a statement, tells a fact, gives
information, and explains something.
Example:
The pencil pouch on the table is mine.
A declarative sentence usually ends with a period, but sometimes
it can end with an exclamation point.

An interrogative sentence is a sentence that asks direct questions
and requests information or an answer.
Example:
Is the book on the table yours?
An interrogative sentence ends with a question mark. It can be
in a positive or negative form and in any tense.

An imperative sentence is a sentence that gives a command, makes a
request, issues an instruction, or offers a piece of advice.
Example:

Most of the time, an imperative sentence ends with a period, but it
can also end with an exclamation point.

all sentences that end with an exclamation point can be considered
exclamatory sentences.
