What is interrigative sentence?

An interrogative sentence is a type of sentence that asks a question. It always ends with a question mark (?).

Here are some key characteristics of interrogative sentences:

* They usually begin with a question word: who, what, when, where, why, how, which.

* They often have a different word order than declarative sentences: The verb usually comes before the subject.

* They aim to elicit information from the listener or reader.

Examples:

* Who is going to the party?

* What time does the movie start?

* When will you be back?

* Where did you find that?

* Why are you leaving?

* How did you do that?

* Which one do you want?

Note: Some interrogative sentences don't start with question words but still function as questions:

* Are you coming to the party?

* Do you like pizza?

These sentences use auxiliary verbs like "are" or "do" to form questions.
