Interrogative sentences are central to human communication, enabling speakers to request information, confirm assumptions, and negotiate meaning. This paper examines the functional types of interrogative sentences in English – yes/no questions, wh-questions, alternative questions, tag questions, and indirect questions – through a linguistic and pragmatic lens. Using descriptive and contextual analysis, the study highlights their syntactic structures, communicative roles, and discourse functions. Findings suggest that interrogatives extend beyond mere information-seeking, serving pragmatic functions such as politeness, persuasion, and rhetorical effect.
