Command: Tells someone to do something. It often starts with a verb (action word) or the word "Please." It usually ends with a period.
*
Question: Asks for information. It usually starts with words like *Who, What, Where, When, Why,* or *How*. It always ends with a question mark (?).
*
Exclamation: Shows strong feeling like excitement, surprise, or anger. It always ends with an exclamation point (!).
*
