Here's what makes interjections unique:
* Standalone: Interjections often stand alone, not grammatically connected to the rest of the sentence.
* Expressive: They express a sudden burst of emotion, like surprise, joy, anger, pain, or disgust.
* Punctuation: They are usually followed by an exclamation mark (!) or a comma (,) depending on the strength of the emotion.
Examples of Interjections:
* Surprise: Wow! Oh! Hey!
* Joy: Hooray! Yay!
* Anger: Ugh! Darn!
* Pain: Ouch! Aww!
* Disgust: Yuck! Ugh!
Here are some sentences using interjections:
* Wow! That was an amazing performance!
* Ouch! I just stubbed my toe.
* Hey! What's going on over there?
* Darn it! I forgot my keys.
* Yuck! That food smells terrible!
Interjections add energy and emotion to language, making it more expressive and engaging.
