?WHAT ARE INTERJECTIONS
Interjections are words used to express strong feeling or sudden emotion.
They are included in a sentence (usually at the start) to express a
sentiment such as surprise, disgust, joy, excitement, or enthusiasm.

An interjection is not grammatically related to any other part of the

sentence.

Interjections are commonly followed by a comma or an exclamation point,

depending on the strength of the emotion the writer would like to
convey.
From time to time, you might see writers use multiple exclamation points,
possibly to infuse more energy into their words. Truthfully, though,
only one exclamation point is necessary to convey emotion.

Examples of Interjections

In the following examples, the interjections are shaded.

Hey! Get off that floor!

Oh, that is a surprise.

Good! Now we can move on.

Jeepers, that was close.

 Ouch! I was just stung by a bee.

 Hey, bring that back here.

 What do you mean that you can't visit, huh?

 I'm just a kid, gee whiz, not a professional athlete.
