This nifty tool helps you quickly analyze your text to see how many declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory sentences you’ve used. It’s like having a grammar coach in your pocket—no judgment, just clarity. Whether you’re polishing a novel or perfecting a presentation, this tool makes it fun and easy to fine-tune your writing. Say goodbye to guesswork and hello to better sentences!
Enter your text below to count the types of sentences.
| Sentence Type | Count |

| Interrogative Sentences | 0 |
| Imperative Sentences | 0 |
| Exclamatory Sentences | 0 |
The Sentence Type Counter works by scanning your text and identifying sentence-ending punctuation marks like periods (.), question marks (?), and exclamation points (!). It then categorizes each sentence based on its structure and purpose:
- Declarative: Statements that end with a period (e.g., "The sky is blue.").
- Interrogative: Questions that end with a question mark (e.g., "Is the sky blue?").
- Imperative: Commands or requests that often start with verbs (e.g., "Please close the door.").
- Exclamatory: Express strong emotions and end with an exclamation mark (e.g., "What a beautiful day!").
Here’s a quick example of how the tool categorizes sentences:
| Sentence | Type |
|---|---|
| "I love pizza." | Declarative |
| "Can you pass the salt?" | Interrogative |
| "Please sit down." | Imperative |
| "What a surprise!" | Exclamatory |
