Understanding Statements

In everyday communication, sentences can be classified into various types based on their function. Statements, also known as declarative sentences, are used to provide information or express an idea. They typically end with a period and make a clear assertion. Recognizing statements within different texts helps in understanding the purpose of a sentence, whether it is to inform, question, command, or exclaim.
