Презентация по английскому языку на тему Types Of Sentences

Types Of Sentences The beauty of sentences lies in clarity, the choice of words and how effectively the thought flows. If words are pearls then a great sentence can be described as a beautiful pearl necklace. Sentences convey more than meaning; they convey style. Now, when writing sentences, it must be understood that it consists of two important constituents-structure and purpose. The structure of a sentence and, the purpose in which it is used, both go a long way in forwarding its meaning. That is why it is important to know, that in how many ways a sentence can be composed. The entire written language depends on the type of its sentences. Only when one knows the various types then he/she can play with words, thoughts and ideas. In any form of writing, it is the sentences that are the building blocks of the structure of the copy. Sentences are categorized in two ways: by structure and by purpose. Types of Sentences by Structure: Simple Sentence Compound Sentence In this type of sentence, there are multiple independent clauses and no dependent clause. All the clauses are joined together by coordinating conjunctions and/or punctuations. Here, the relationship between the two independent clauses can be changed by the proper use of coordinating conjunctions. Complex Sentence This type of sentence consists of at least one independent clause and one dependent clause. One characteristic of complex sentence is that it has a relative pronoun like 'that', 'who' or 'which' or a subordinator like 'because', 'since', 'when', 'although' or 'after'. If the complex sentence begins with a subordinator then a comma is placed after the dependent clause. When the sentence begins with an independent clause and the subordinators are in the middle, then there is no need to place a comma after the dependent clause. Compound-Complex Sentence This type of sentence consists of multiple independent clauses and at least one dependent clause. The clauses are connected by both conjunctions and subordinators.  Sentences are also classified based on their purpose.  Declarative Interrogative Exclamatory Imperative Conditional Declarative Sentence This type of sentence, also known as a declaration, is generally used to make a statement. This sentence "declares" a fact or opinion and can be either positive or negative. Declarative sentences always end with a period. I am happy. That bird is flying. I deposited my money in the bank. Interrogative Sentence This type of sentence asks a question or request information. However, rhetorical questions do not fall into the category of interrogative sentences. Interrogative sentence always ends with a question mark. When did you turn the lights off? Do you know how to ride a bike? Please tell me the real reason why you came here? Exclamatory Sentence This type of sentence expresses an exclamation; it is a form of statement expressing emotion or excitement. Exclamatory sentences always end with an exclamation mark to emphasize a statement.“Good night!” she said.Wow! What a dream.What a beautiful sunrise! Imperative Sentence This type of sentence is in the form of a command. This is a sentence which tells someone to do something. Imperative sentence, when framed strongly enough, can also be exclamatory. Imperative sentence can also be used to make a request and end with a period. Please give me that book. Finish all your chores before you go out. I want to eat pizza tonight. Conditional Sentence In this type of sentence, a condition is implied and what one would do if the conditions were met. It generally depends on the use of 'if'. If I had 100 bucks, I would go for an ice-cream. I could have done this for you only if I had the time. Other Types Of Sentences Major Sentence A major sentence has two components-a subject and a predicate. It is, in short, any regular sentence. We have to go. They must eat. Minor Sentence Word Sentences Single words that form a full sentence are known as word sentences.“Alas”“Yes”
