Grammar: Interjections and Examples













 Interjections

In grammar, an interjection is a part of speech or (a lexical category) which is used to show a short sudden expression of emotion. Interjections are short exclamations like Oh!, Um or Ah! They have no real grammatical value but we use them quite often, usually more in speaking than in writing. An interjection is a short word or phrase that shows emotion. It often stands alone, unconnected to a sentence.




Example –

  • Oops! I did it again!
  • Ooh, what a lovely dress!
  • Yahoo, we did it!
  • Alas, it was not to be.
  • You two are dating? Awesome!
  • Bingo! Right on target!
  • Oh wow, that is so cool!
