DeclarativeThe declarative sentence
makes a statement.
ex. This is the Hoover Dam.The Hoover Dam is on the border of Arizona and Nevada.
Interrogative
An interrogative sentence asks a
question and should always be punctuated with a question mark.
ex. Who took the picture?How high is the dam?Would you like to see it in person?
Imperative
An imperative sentence gives a command or
request. The subject of an imperative sentence is
usually implied {the understood(you).}
ex. Look closely at the picture.Ashley, imagine that you are standing on the columns.
Exclamatory
An exclamatory sentence expresses
strong emotion.ex. Wow, what a view!That’s incredible!

sentence is the verb. It tells what the subject is
doing or what the subject is like.
