exclamation
Dear teachers,
If you were to comment on a tone of a particular sentence and that this one is an exclamation, would say that this sentence is written "in an exclamatory tone" ??
Is the word "tensional" appropriate in this context? If not, when is it used?
If you were to ask a student to justify their answers would you say "Justify your answers in sentences" ? By the way what do you call the question that precedes an exercise?
Thank you very much for your help,
Hela

Hi Hela, If you were to comment on a tone of a particular sentence and that this one is an exclamation, would say that this sentence is written "in an exclamatory tone" ?? Possibly, although I might prefer 'in an exclamatory manner '. I might also prefer ' with an exclamatory tone'.

Hi Hela,
I guess you could call such a title 'a prompt'. But I wouldn't say a prompt always has to be a question. It's just something to jog your memory. eg The first part of a sentence that you have to complete could be considered a prompt.
Bet wishes, Clive
