- Interrogative: asks a question, and ends with a question mark.
- Exclamatory: shows strong emotion or feeling, and ends with an exclamation mark.
- Imperative: gives a direction or common and ends with a period or exclamation mark. Subject is often implied
or named.


SENTENCE TYPES 2

- A predicate is a part of a sentence or clause that contains a verb and states something about the subject
( tells us about the verb )
