Interjections are words or phrases
that we use to express strong
emotions or sudden reactions. They
can add emphasis, show surprise,
convey excitement, or express other
intense feelings. They are an
essential part of our language and
play a crucial role in our everyday
conversations.
3.Some interjections are used to
break up a conversation or a thought
or to hold someone's attention for a
brief period
For Example :imagine you're having a
conversation with a friend about a
movie you both watch:
Friend: "The movie was so
intense, and the plot twist at
the end..."
You (interjecting): "Oh my
goodness! I did not see that
coming!"
In casual and informal
writing, interjections are
acceptable. It's also alright
to use them in
conversation.
For example, consider these two sentences:

Casual/Informal: "Wow, that concert was


amazing! I mean, the energy, the music,
everything was just mind-blowing!"

Formal: "The concert was of exceptional


quality, showcasing remarkable energy,
exquisite music, and an overall awe-inspiring
experience."
