 Hello everyone, this is Mr. P. On today's lesson, we're going to take a look at the types of sentences in English. We have declarative, exclamatory, imperative, and interrogative. So let's get started with declarative. A declarative sentence makes a statement. It is punctuated by a period. Example. The dog in the neighbor's yard is barking. Whoa whoa! Imperative. An imperative sentence is a command or polite request. It ends in a period or exclamation mark. Examples. Close the door. Command. Please be quiet, polite request. Exclamatory. An exclamatory sentence expresses great emotion or excitement. It ends in an exclamation mark. Example. The house is on fire! Interrogative. An interrogative sentence asks a question. It ends in a question mark. Example. Is it raining? It is raining alright. Now let's take a pop quiz. Write declarative, imperative, exclamatory, or interrogative next to the sentences below.
