Interjections
Though not common in most academic writing, the interjection has its
significance in several other forms of writing such as novels, fictional, emails
and some other informal communication texts. Interjections are words used to
indicate emotions such as surprise, love, hatred, anger, etc., when used in
sentences. They may appear either at the beginning, middle or end of a
sentence conveying emotion.
The fact about interjections is that, even though they show emotions, they are
not grammatically related to the sentence. Because interjections are
expressed independently, serving an emotive purpose and followed by a
sentence, there are usually no associated errors with them. However,
interjections must agree with the purpose of sentences they are used for.
Avoid contradiction between your sentence and the interjectory word.
