Interjections
An interjection expresses an emotion. It might show excitement or surprise

eg.

Wow! That is a giant pumpkin!

Ouch, you stepped on my toe!

Yippee! We won!

Whoa! Hold your horses!

Bravo, you did a great job!

An interjection often appears at the beginning of a sentence. It is usually followed by an exclamation point or a comma.
