Types of Imperative Sentence

lieve

Updated March 28, 2018. The word Homonymy (from the Greek—homos: same, onoma: name) is the relation between words with identical forms but different meanings—that is, the condition of being homonyms. A stock example is the word bank as it appears in “river bank” and “savings ​bank.”

For example: Get out of here! (Imperative sentence) I wish he would leave!

Examples:

• Bring me a glass of water.
• Don’t ever touch my phone.
• Give me a pen and a pencil.
• Play with intensity and courage.
• Remember me when we are parted.
• Never forget the person who loves you.
• Take a step and don’t move.
• Don’t be excited about everything without reason.

• Share a Wish or Request – This type of imperative sentence shares polite wishes and requests with someone, such as, “Have a good day!”
• Offer an Invitation – This type of imperative sentence extends an invitation, such as, “Please join me for dinner tonight.”

5 sentences:

• My mom taught me to finish everything on my plate at dinner.

• Our school building is made of bricks.
• Every night I get woken up by the sound of a barking dog across the street.

Sentences always begin with a capital letter and end in either a full stop, exclamation or question mark. A complete sentence always contains a verb, expresses a complete idea and makes sense standing alone. Andy reads quickly. This is now a complete sentence, as the whole idea of the sentence has been expressed.

Three essential types of sentence are declarative sentences (which are statements), interrogative sentences (which are questions), and imperative sentences (which are orders).
