1.2 Declarative, interrogative, imperative and exclamatory sentence patterns
When people communicate, they do so for various reasons. The main reasons are:
1. To inform someone of something
2. To get information from someone
3. To get someone to do something
4. To express one’s attitude about something
1. Inform John is leaving Subject-whole verb Declarative
2. To get Is John leaving? Part of verb-subject-rest of verb Interrogative
information
3. To get someone Leave! Verb by itself Imperative
to do something
4. Express one's How awful John is How__of What a __ followed by the Exclamatory
attitude leaving! remainder of the sentence
Most sentences are informative and will have the declarative sentence pattern.
1.3 Participant, process, attributes, and setting
When we look at a picture, we can name the following aspects: one or more participants,
attributes of these participants, and information
about the setting or the event or situation. In a
typical sentence, the person or thing that stands
out the most is named first. We will call this
person or thing the first participant. Followed
by the process, like walking or talking. Then,
the speaker may say something about the first
participant or name other participants. These
are attributes describing a quality or
characteristic.
