| Mar 7, 2018 at 17:57 | comment | added | Virtuous Legend | For example: if I say "You are right." it's considered a positive declarative sentence. But if I'd say "You are not right." then it's a negative declarative sentence". Now all the examples that I saw for exclamatory sentences are positive. I didn't see negative exclamatory sentences (=using the word "not" in this sentences). See here: grammar-monster.com/glossary/exclamatory_sentence.htm | |
