Sentence Formation
After understanding the use of punctuations, the concept of sentence formation becomes much easier to understand. Apart from the punctuations, grammar plays an important role in sentence formation. It has to be understood that nouns, articles, verbs, and prepositions come together to form a perfect sentence. Also, there are other elements such as adjectives and others that also become a part of a sentence.
Sentences can be simple, compound, or complex in nature.
- A simple sentence is mainly an independent sentence that is not dependent on any other clause. A very common example is: The dog barked.
- A compound sentence is a sentence where two sentences are joined and dependent on each other through a clause. For example, He waited, but she left.
- A complex sentence has more than one clause to interconnect different sentences.
Apart from the simple, compound, and complex sentences, there are also some other sentence types depending upon the tempo and these are:
- Declarative sentences or assertive sentences are those that make a statement. Often a Full Stop is used after such a sentence.
- Interrogative sentences are those that ask a question. The Question Mark punctuation is used after this sentence.
- Imperative sentences are mainly orders or a request.
- Exclamatory Sentences express strong emotions such as fear, surprise, or similar others. The Exclamation Mark is used after such a sentence.
Different sentences can let the reader know about the perspective and the thought process of the writer. Making use of the right punctuations and grammar, the right sentences can be formed that can reflect the exact message that you wish to convey.
