more independent clauses
with a conjunction or
semicolon. It conveys multiple
related ideas in a single
sentence.

but it started to rain.”

she loves dancing.”
INTERROGATIVE
SENTENCE

question mark. It is formed by
changing the word order of a
declarative sentence.

with “wh-” words, such as “who,”
“what,” “where,” “when,” or “how”.
These are sometimes called “wh-
questions”.

request, or instruction. Usually begin with

THR BASIC
GRAMMAR RULES
The basic grammar rules is a set of
structural rules that govern the
composition of clauses, phrases, and
words in the English language. These
rules ensure clarity and consistency
in communication.
PUNCTUATION

symbols used in writing
to clarify meaning and
separate structural
elements.
WORD ORDER
Word order is the way we arrange words in a sentence to
make it clear and correct. In English, the usual word order
is:
Subject + Verb + Object
• Subject: Who or what the sentence is about.
• Verb: What the subject is doing.
• Object: Who or what the action is being done to.
