What are the two categories of sentences that may end with an exclamation point?

The two categories of sentences that may end with an exclamation point are:

1. Exclamatory Sentences: These express strong emotion, such as surprise, excitement, anger, or fear. They are usually short and to the point.

* Example: "Wow! That was amazing!"

2. Imperative Sentences: These give commands or instructions, often with a sense of urgency.

* Example: "Stop! Don't touch that!"

It's important to note that while both categories can use exclamation points, they are not the only types of sentences that can. Sometimes exclamation points can be used for emphasis or to highlight a particular word or phrase, even in declarative sentences.
