Interrogative clause

Hey kiddo, have you ever asked a question before? Well, a question is a type of sentence that we use when we want to get information or learn something new.

An interrogative clause is just a fancy way of saying a question within a sentence. It's a group of words that asks a question and can be used to get more information about a situation.

For example, let's say you saw a big dog outside. You might say, "Do you see the dog outside?" The part that asks the question, "Do you see the dog outside?" is the interrogative clause.

We use interrogative clauses all the time in everyday conversation, like when we're asking for directions, checking in on someone's day, or just trying to learn something new. They're a really important tool for communication, and they help us get the information we need to understand the world around us.
