July 04, 2026

Chapter 11 : Interjection

Definition:
An Interjection is a word or short phrase that expresses a sudden feeling, emotion, or reaction. It is usually followed by an exclamation mark (!).

Easy Trick:
If a word expresses an emotion like joy, surprise, pain, sorrow, fear, or excitement, it is an Interjection.

Types of Interjection

Emotion Interjection Example
Joy Hurrah! Hurrah! We won the match.
Surprise Wow! Wow! What a beautiful painting!
Sorrow Alas! Alas! The old man died.
Pain Ouch! Ouch! My hand hurts.
Greeting Hello! Hello! How are you?
Approval Bravo! Bravo! Excellent performance.

Examples

Sentence Interjection
Wow! This is amazing. Wow!
Hurrah! We have won. Hurrah!
Alas! He is no more. Alas!
Ouch! That hurts. Ouch!
Hello! Nice to meet you. Hello!

Important Rules

  • An interjection expresses sudden feelings or emotions.
  • It is usually followed by an exclamation mark (!).
  • It is often placed at the beginning of a sentence.
  • It does not have a grammatical relation with the rest of the sentence.

Common Errors

Wrong Correct
Wow this is beautiful. Wow! This is beautiful.
Alas he failed. Alas! He failed.
Hurrah we won. Hurrah! We won.

Memory Trick

Remember this sentence: "Happy People Always Win Hearts."
