Grammar 2. Exclamatory and Imperative

The purpose of an 'exclamatory' sentence is to express strong feeling. It begins with a capital letter and ends with an exclamation point.

I aced the test! (exclamation)

An 'imperative' sentence gives a command or makes a request. Its subject is not stated directly, but is understood to be you. Imperative sentences also begin with a capital letter and usually end with a period. A strong command may end with
an exclamation point.

(You) Put your essay on my desk when you are finished. (imperative)
(You) Give me a break! (strong imperative)
