NOTES

It is an excuse.
The actress is very arrogant. SENTENCES

He is a clever boy WITHOUT EMOTIONS
We have lost the match.

These groups of words are in a simple order. They end with a full stop.
They don’t show emotion.

We begin an exclamatory sentence with ‘What a….!’ if the predicate
contains an adjective and a noun and ‘How ……. !’ if the predicate

contains only an adjective.

In other cases, we use the emotive words like alas, hush, ouch, oh my God, etc.

Exclamatory sentences usually end with a mark of exclamation [!] and
have a different word order.

What an excuse it is!
How arrogant the actress is! SENTENCES
