Exclamatory Sentences

Exclamatory Sentences
An exclamatory sentence is a type of sentence that expresses strong emotions, excitement, surprise, or urgency. It is characterized by its punctuation, typically ending with an exclamation mark (!). Exclamatory sentences can take various forms, similar to declarative, interrogative, or imperative sentences. Declarative Exclamatory: Declarative: The sky is so clear tonight. Exclamatory: The sky is so clear tonight! Interrogative Exclamatory: Interrogative: Did you see that amazing sunset? Exclamatory: Did you see that amazing sunset! Imperative Exclamatory: Imperative: Close the door quietly. Exclamatory: Close the door quietly! They convey a heightened emotional tone to emphasize the speaker's feelings. These sentences often feature words or phrases that convey strong emotions, such as joy, surprise, anger, admiration, or frustration. The primary purpose of an exclamatory sentence is to convey a sense of intensity or strong sentiment in the expression of a thought or statement. Exclamatory Sentence Intonation: The pitch and stress patterns of speech can help express the strong emotions. Rising intonation on key words or at the end of the sentence enhances the exclamatory effect. Declarative Exclamatory: Declarative: The sky is so clear tonight. (Normal, neutral intonation) Exclamatory: The sky is so clear tonight! (Rising intonation on tonight to convey excitement or emphasis) Interrogative Exclamatory: Interrogative: Did you see that amazing sunset? (Typically rising intonation at the end of the question) Exclamatory: Did you see that amazing sunset! (Similar to the interrogative, but with a stronger emphasis and excitement) Imperative Exclamatory: Imperative: Close the door quietly. (Normal, neutral intonation) Exclamatory: Close the door quietly! (Rising intonation on quietly to emphasize urgency or importance) Exclamatory sentences with pronouns What and How: Exclamatory sentences can begin with the pronouns what and how when these words are used to express strong emotions or surprise. Here are examples: Exclamatory sentence starting with What: What a beautiful sunset! What an incredible performance! Exclamatory sentence starting with How: How amazing that magic trick was! How stunning the view from here! What is used with nouns, and How is used with adjectives and adverbs. What with nouns: Word Order/Structure: What + (a/an) + adjective + noun Example: What a fantastic idea! How with adjectives/adverbs: Word Order/Structure: How + adjective/adverb/adjective phrase/adverb phrase + subject + verb Example: How beautifully she sings! How beautiful her voice is! The word order, structure, and intonation work together to create a sense of excitement or strong emotion. What with countable/uncountable/plural Nouns: The use of articles with What in exclamatory sentences depends on whether the noun following What is countable or uncountable. Countable Nouns: Use the indefinite article a or an before the countable noun. The adjective usually stands before a noun. Examples: What a beautiful garden! What an interesting movie! What a talented artist! Uncountable Nouns: Do not use an article before the adjective and uncountable noun. Examples: What delicious cake! What stunning scenery! What incredible talent! Plural Nouns: Typically, do not use an article before the adjective and plural noun. Examples: What wonderful friends! What amazing achievements! What fantastic opportunities! How with adjectives and adverbs: When using How in exclamatory sentences with both adjectives and adverbs, the structure and word order can vary based on the context. How with Adjectives: Word Order/Structure: How + adjective + subject + verb Examples: How beautiful the sunset is! How talented she is! How amazing the performance was! . How with Adverbs: Word Order/Structure: How + adverb + subject + verb Examples: How quickly time flies! How gracefully she dances! How effortlessly he solved the problem!
Variety in Structure:
Exclamatory sentences can have various structures. They may follow the traditional subject-verb-object pattern, or they may involve inversions (changing the usual word order for emphasis), especially when starting with What or How. Traditional subject-verb-object (SVO) patterns of Exclamatory Sentences: The basic structure follows the common syntactic arrangement found in declarative sentences. The key difference is the expression of strong emotions or emphasis through the choice of words and punctuation. Subject + Verb + Object: 1.I can't believe it is snowing so heavily today! 2.She has done an incredible job on the project! 3.You've created a masterpiece with this artwork! 4.This is the most delicious meal I've ever taste! 5.Our team won the championship! 6.They bought a new house, and it's absolutely gorgeous!
Inversed exclamatory sentences: The typical word order is altered for emphasis, often starting with What or How at the beginning of the sentence. This inversion is a common feature in exclamatory constructions, and it contributes to a more dramatic or impactful expression of emotion. Inverted Subject + Verb + Object: What a treasure he found! How amazing the concert is! Inverted Auxiliary Verb + Subject + Main Verb: What a project she has completed! Inverted Prepositional Phrase: How over the lake the birds flew! Inverted Adverbial Phrase: How gracefully she danced! Implied Subject: Exclamatory sentences may sometimes have an implied subject, especially when focusing on the emotion or the quality being emphasized. For example, What a beautiful day! may imply It is such a beautiful day! In implied exclamatory sentences, the speaker relies on modifiers, adverbs, or specific language choices to convey enthusiasm, surprise, intensity, or urgency, creating an exclamatory effect. Implied Emotion: This cake is delicious! (Declarative) This cake is so delicious. (Implied exclamatory) Implied Intensity: She's a talented musician. (Declarative) She's such a talented musician. (Implied exclamatory) Implied Surprise: I found the missing keys. (Declarative) I found the missing keys in the most unexpected place! (Implied exclamatory) Implied Urgency: Please complete the task. (Imperative) Please complete the task as soon as possible! (Implied exclamatory) Context &Tone /Types of Exclamatory Sentences: The tone of exclamatory sentences can vary widely, from excitement and joy to surprise, anger, or urgency. Exclamatory sentences can take various forms, expressing a range of emotions, intensity, or emphasis. Here are different types of exclamatory sentences: Surprise or Astonishment: What a surprise to see you here! Joy or Happiness: How happy I am to see you! Admiration or Appreciation: What a talented artist she is! Frustration or Anger: How frustrating it is to deal with this situation! Urgency or Importance: What an urgent message you have! Agreement or Confirmation: What a fantastic idea! Disbelief or Disapproval: How irresponsible that behavior was! Anticipation or Excitement: What an exciting adventure awaits us! Omitting the Subject or To Be: In an exclamatory sentence, it's common to omit elements for brevity and emphasis. If you want to express How cold it is! and choose to omit the subject and the verb to be, you can simply say: How cold! In the sentence What a fine building! the subject and the verb to be are implied or omitted for brevity and impact. What a fine building!

heartbreaking: this viral post is saying things you completely agree with in the most irritating way possible
#mumbling#goD#thinking about that one cringing = pearl clutching post i saw a while ago#legitimately good points and the only time i’ve ever seen someone point out the linguistic shift#of ‘cringe’ going from verb to adjective and how that takes the blame off of the people DOING the cringing#like yeah! that’s it that’s the thing i’ve been trying to figure out how to say!!#the insidious shift from cringe as an action of the beholder to a property of the beheld is not only worth examining#but demonstrates a seriously important way our brains can be affected over time by language#that was something i didn’t even notice! sure it bothered me but i didn’t know how to express WHY#and i think it’s so cool to see someone finally manage to articulate smth that’s been pissing me off for years#HOWEVER#my god was op’s phrasing annoying the hell out of me for some reason#just written in such a grating writing style i couldn’t bring myself to reblog it even though i really wanted to

I would like to offer the idea of Tim going by the alias Corvid instead of Red Robin.
Red Robin made sense during the Brucequest and time immediately after. But that’s specifically because it was a reflection of his mental state at the time. Tim should’ve/should start using a different mantle/alias/identity after he restabilizes. And here’s why I think it should be Corvid:
Corvid is in reference to Corvidae birds (the crow family), which are generally considered to be one of/the most intelligent families of birds
Corvids are known to use tools like sticks (like his utility belt and bo staff)
Tim could have a primary costume/identity called Corvid, but could also have a variety of costumes/identities based on the birds of the corvidae family (crows, ravens, magpies, jays, etc.) for going undercover so he has a plethora of civilian identities (Tim Drake, Alvin Draper, Caroline Hill, etc) and vigilante-type identities
Corvids are often associated with and feature the colors black, blue, and/or purple which aligns with the colors of Batman and Black Bat/Orphan, Nightwing, and Spoiler—all of which being people that have had a lot of influence on him and/or that he’s close to. (I’m aware of him wearing black and red to honor Kon because it’s their colors and Kon died. But since Kon came back to life, it feels more like a grim reminder than a memoriam)
I also just like the different feather designs of different corvids which means more potential for cool costume designs
Corvids, in multiple different cultures, are considered to be omens/messengers of, usually, bad news. This could be a neat combination with Tim using intimidation as a weapon like Batman (or him just generally being bad news for criminals). If you want, there’s also the angst potential of him seeing himself as bad luck or bringing death to the people around him
People already use the names Blackbird and Crow as alternatives for Red Robin, which are pretty similar to Corvid. I just think Corvid sounds cooler
It’s still a bird-based name so I feel like, despite moving passed his time as Robin, it doesn’t entirely ignore his history as Robin
#I know that a tumblr post won’t change the comics and likely won’t even sway fandom opinion but I wanted to contribute regardless#The one positive thing about him going by Red Robin though is that it facilitates my headcanon that Tim’s creatively bankrupt#When it comes to hero names/aliases#Like the two names he came up with were adjective + the name he was already going by and his last fucking name#Tim Drake#Timothy drake#red robin#Red Robin dc#batfam#batfamily#batman#dc#not about naruto#my stooff#I came up with this because I was making a superhero oc I wanted to go by Corvid and I realized how much sense it made for Tim to go by it#Rambling

I'll honestly still be mourning the ROUND 6 that we could have had. The first sketches where Ivan and Till are hugging... Ivan with his arm around Till's shoulders.... The friendly teasing...
I fully understand why they had to change it, but it's still sad to think about all that we missed out on.
#alnst#alien stage#alien stage round 6#ivantill#it rips me apart to think about the fact that they changed the draft because ivantill overlapped too much with mizisua.#they seemed too “mutual”#their relationship seemed closer and more fond in those sketches....#but ultimately thats not what the team intended. they wanted each of their relationships to be different#and ivantill was apparently supposed to be “obssessive” and “possessive” (CRAZY ADJECTIVES BTW.)#the thing they wanted to emphasize about ivantill was that it was one-sided. (tearing my hair out)#what if i ARRRRGGHHHHHHH#i always thought the round 6 we got seemed so different from what i was imagining#and knowing how much they changed it. it makes sense#the patreon posts painted a very different picture for me at the time. the sketches in particular gave me hope hahaha#many things ended up different#im still grateful for the teams work#what we got was sadder and more tragic but if its closer to what they envisioned then im glad

my friend has been teaching herself czech for the sake of enrichment and i feel so vindicated by her questions and discoveries, such as škoda being named what it is

#i have been saying this#i can see how people got named after their fathers or professions or even adjectives that described them#but how does someone get named 'soup'

Yeah! I haven't read any fics focusing on them but I have seen that they exist! And also there's like a five sentence interaction in a fic I read ages ago that lives rent free in my brain. I think about it all the time when I draw Sixty.
#detroit become human#captain allen#rk800 60#yeah yeah the fic is definitely not about them but that little exchange is on repeat#thats the menace to society i need#someone who pulls a technically shes older than me therefore its within my rights to fight back#about an eight year old he has met one (1) time who threw a water balloon at him#granted in the fic there are adjectives used that would be less than sunny but the dialogue i used here is directly from it#so its only fair to link the fic lmao#hello once again saying i was reading fics for this game way before i actually played it so my formed thoughts#are v different than had i played it first ... and honestly im happy with the outcome !#i think i was able to enjoy the game more by realizing the ship i was reading about truly just didnt exist in game at all#and also holy moly the dbh fic writers are really good at writing anxiety and depression im in awe of how they word things#anyway here you go anon thank you for making sure i knew ! as i am constantly not a knower i like being told things i might not know#what if i started drawing for fics ive read what then would people who wrote them appreciate fanart five years later

[ID: Three images, stacked vertically. Image 1 is an Elon Musk Tweet, from October 4, 2022: "Buying Twitter is an accelerant to creating X, the everything app". Beneath it, the Image 2 is a close-up of a dictionary listing defining the word "accererant as 'noun: a substance used to aid the spread of fire." The word "fire" is highlighted. The definition continue with an example "stolent accelerants could be used as firebombs" and further continues the definition as "adjective (technical): accelerating or causing acceleration. 'accelerant factors for carcinoma'". Image 3 contains two panels from K.C. Green's Gunshow comic #648, better known as the "This is Fine" dog meme, in the first panel the MC is flailing their arms surrounded by everything that is on fire screaming "OHMYGOD EVERYTHINGS ON FIRE" and the second panel where they continue screaming "WHAT THE HELL IS MY PROBLEM, their face distorted, their eyes bulging, their cute little bowler hat suspended in midair on the precipice of not quite ever falling off. Juxtaposed over these two panels at a 50% opacity overlay is the (at the time of posting) new Twitter/X homepage teaser, which displayed a truly massive overcompensation of an X-logo surrounded by edgy font reading "what's happening what"s happening what's happening what's happening" all down the image. The image of the logo and "what's happening" provides a , /end ID]

my Stoicist bf: The pleasures of the flesh are fleeting. To waste time and energy trying to achieve a short-lived release is to demean oneself in spirit and mind.

Jingles a little bell in front of you to convince you to do tasks.
[First] Prev <--> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#jin ling#wei wuxian#lan jingyi#lan sizhui#A-qing#Not tagging XXC its too mean#Season 2 is underway! This episode has so much going on but it's a great season start#I adore how the juniors bicker in the opening scene....especially jin ling#I know there's more to him wanting to help out than just the jingle jangle of the clarity bell but also#from the outside it really does look like wwx jingled a little bell in front of him and made him go from 'not helping' to 'fine I'll help'#I also have failed to capitalize on the fact little jin ling has a bell on him. It has meaning and emotional weight. However.#JC really said: 'this little boy keeps getting underfoot and lost in crowds. I'll put a bell on him'.#Its stated that *all* the yunmeng jiang disciples had a clarity bell. Which is 1) funny to think they all wander off at times 2) owwww#Also extra 'Owww' the audio drama adds with this scene is the weight on how wwx never got to give baby JL the bell he carved as a gift#That little bell can hold so much significance to so many aspects of these character's lives.#'Clarity' as an adjective here is also pulling some fun weight. JL slowly coming to truly see myx/wwx as someone more than the rumours#have made him out to be. Teen discovers that you should make your own decisions about someone! Good for him!#JL is a great character and I like him more than my silly little comic design implies.

day 100000 of me seeing a post about 'care/whumpers' and thinking 'that is literally just a whumper who is nice sometimes. you are literally just describing a whumper'
#trying to avoid it going into any tags for people who enjoy the concept#once again i am so viscerally uncomfortable with the way people talk abt this...#idk. trope. archetype. whatever. like that's just a whumper#who isn't beating the fuck outta whumpee 24/7#since when does whumper exclude someone who has 'good intentions'#or is nice sometimes#or thinks they're doing what's best#that's like- idk. it's very...#there is a way this community uses this term that is so heavily abuse apologistic that it's#very very uncomfortable and alarming for me as an abuse survivor#what about any kind of care meaningfully makes the abuse inflicted not abuse#or less abuse or more of a 'grey area'#go on i'll wait#gav gab#it's not like 'intimate whumper' or 'scientist whumper' or whatever#it's not an adjective modifying whumper#it is posited as a distinctly separate thing#from both whumper and caretaker as situaitonal roles#and the only thing differentiating it as far as i can see#is they're Nice Sometimes#or they don't MEAN to do the harm they do#and it's like. idk#saying that makes them somehow partially a caretaker#who are may i remind not Perfect People Who Never Do Wrong#but are a narrative role within a situation that is set contrary to the harm caused#is like#that's really really disturbing to me and says some frightening things about how people using the term may see abuse#fiction is not reality blah blah i know#but the way this is framed and approached#speaks to some unconscious biases about abuse
