What are "Interrogative Sentences"?

Interrogative sentences are used to ask questions. An interrogative sentence ends with a question mark.
The most common interrogative words are as follows:
What, When, Where, Which, Who, Whom, Whose, Why, How

Interrogative words and what they refer:
What refers to 'specific information' or confirmation/repetition
When refers to 'at what time' or 'on what occasion'
Where refers to 'in what place, position or situation'
Which refers to 'choice or alternative'
Who refers to 'identity' of a subject (person/people)
Whom refers to 'identity' of an object (person/people)
Whose refers to 'who something belongs to'
Why refers to 'reason, explanation or purpose'
How refers to 'way or manner', 'condition or quality'

These words are called 'Wh-question words' because all these words contain the letter 'w' and 'h'. All these words (except 'how') even start from 'Wh'.

NOTE: The following words are also used to ask questions:
Whatever, Whenever, Wherever, Whoever
These forms show 'surprise, confusion, or emphasis.

Besides 'Wh-question words', Auxiliary Verbs 'Be', 'Do', 'Have', and 'Modal Verbs' are also used to form interrogative sentences. Following is the list of auxiliary and modal verbs:
Auxiliary Verb-- Be-- Am, Is, Are, Was, Were
Auxiliary Verb-- Do-- Do, Does, Did
Auxiliary Verb-- Have-- Have, Has, Had
Modal Verbs-- May, Might, Can, Could, Will, Would, Shall, Should, Must, Need, Used (To), Ought (To), Dare
You can begin sentences with these verbs to form Yes/No interrogative sentences.

Autorenporträt

Manik Joshi was born on January 26, 1979, at Ranikhet, a picturesque town in the Kumaon region of the Indian state of Uttarakhand. He is a permanent resident of the Sheeshmahal area of Kathgodam located in the city of Haldwani in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand in India. He completed his schooling in four different schools. He is a science graduate in the ZBC zoology, botany, and chemistry subjects. He is also an MBA with a specialization in marketing. Additionally, he holds diplomas in "computer applications", "multimedia and web-designing", and "computer hardware and networking". During his schooldays, he wanted to enter the field of medical science; however, after graduation he shifted his focus to the field of management.
