Types of Sentence: Interrogative

Interrogative sentences are questions. When you analyze them the important thing to remember is that the verbs are sometimes divided up. You have to find both of them (see below). Here's a page that shows how to diagram them -- you usually turn the question into a statement.

Interrogative sentences many times have the subject between the parts of the verb phrase. To find the verb and the subject, turn the question into a statement. Example: Have you seen my coat? You have seen my coat. Who or what have seen? You have seen. You is the subject.
