The 4 Types of Sentences (and fragments, too)

Statement A statement tells something. It states a fact or an opinion. A statement has a period at the end. Examples: We study English in the morning. My cat’s name is fluffy.

Question A Question asks something. It wants you to give an answer. A Question ends with a question mark. Examples: When does the bus leave? Do you like listening to music?

Exclamation An exclamation shows strong feeling. An exclamation needs an exclamation mark at the end. Examples: Close the door, please! Watch out for the monster!

Command A command tells or asks someone to do something. A command ends with a period or an exclamation mark. Examples: Clean your room. Be quiet!

Fragment A fragment is not a sentence! A fragment is missing a subject or a verb. Examples: went to the supermarket. He suspicious.
