Sentences 2 - Types of Sentences
Writing sentences is both an art and a science. It is science because you must follow grammar and other conventions. It is an art because you can be as creative as you want and the way you combine the words makes you stand out from other writers.
In the previous quiz on sentences we looked at sentences as a unit of communication. We found that sentences contain words. We also looked at how sentences have to commence and end. We know that sentences are classified into Assertive, Exclamatory, Imperative and Interrogative sentences. In this quiz we learn more about Interrogative sentences.
Interrogative sentences are sentences where a question is asked. For instance, ‘Do you know the cost of this book?’ is an interrogative sentence and you will notice that just like other sentences, the first word is written with its first letter in capitals. Unlike assertive and imperative sentences interrogative sentences end with a question mark.
