What is an Assertive Sentence

An Assertive sentence is a simple sentence that declares the sentence as a statement, event, occasion, experience, any, idea, situation; Therefore, an assertive sentence is also called a declarative sentence.

What is an Exclamatory Sentence

What does exclamatory mean? An Exclamatory sentence, sometimes called an exclamation sentence, is a statement that presents an exclamation. An exclamatory sentence uses exclamation points for the last punctuation and it is meant to be read and spoken with a particular emphasis.

Examples:-

• My cat has passed away! (expressing sorrow)
• How can you lose that paper! (expressing frustration)
• What a movie that was! (expressing admiration)
• How beautiful this city town is!
• Why don’t you listen to my words!
• Oh, I was going to be there now!
• No more, give up!

NOTE: 
One important matter that you must remember that in an exclamatory sentence, the verb comes at the last of a sentence and then you have to put an exclamation sign (!). An exclamation word and the sign can also place at the beginning of the sentence after an exclamation like such as hurrah!, alas!, and fie!
