Understanding Sentence Types and Punctuation in English Grammar

This resource provides a comprehensive review of the four types of sentences: declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory. Each type is defined with clear examples to illustrate their unique functions and punctuation rules. Declarative statements provide information and end with a period, interrogative sentences pose questions and end with a question mark, imperative sentences give commands, often leading with "You," and exclamatory sentences express strong emotions, ending with an exclamation point. Additionally, this guide emphasizes proper punctuation in dialogue.
