What is
Interjection?
I n te rj e c ti o n s

g ory o r a w o rd u s e d to
is a lexical cate
n iso la t e d e m o t ion o r
express a
e p a rt o f t h e s p e a ke r
sentiment on th
small words that bear no grammatical connection
with the sentences in which they are used

They are usually followed by an


exclamation mark and comma
an exclamation mark is used for a more
abrupt display of surprise, emotion or deep
feeling

e.g: - “Hello! My car is gone!”


- “Hurry! The bus is about to leave!”

A comma is used for a mild interjection or if


the emotion is not as strong,
e.g: -”Hello Jack. How are you?”
- “No, I'm not going tomorrow night.
Two types of interjection

form of
single
words or
sentences
phrases
phrases • - Pssst…
form of words or
- Wonderful!
- Gracious!
-Damn it!
- Bullshit!

single sentences. • - How interesting!


- How strange!
-What a pretty girl!
- What a big house!
There are some specific
verbs that can be used in
the sense of the sentence
exclaimed.
• Shocking!
f. Adjectives

e. Pronouns
• Fool!
d. Noun
• Shut up!
c. Imperative

b. Subjunctive
Infinitive • To think that he should have

Don't get fooled into thinking that all
introductory words followed by an
exclamation point or a comma are
interjections. They're not!

Hmm... What is an
interjection? Do
you remember?

It is a word that shows emotion. So, if the word in


question does not show emotion, it is probably not an
interjection.
