Introduction

An interrogative sentence expresses a question about an object, action, state, or sign that is

unknown to the speaker. Interrogative sentences are divided into two groups that are opposite to

each other according to the nature of the expected answer: The first group includes interrogative

sentences that require affirmation or negation. In this case, an interrogative sentence is formed

without interrogative pronouns, using intonation or interrogative predicates. The sentence contains

the name of an event or phenomenon that is unknown to the speaker. Such interrogative sentences

are most often formed using the -mi predicate. They are widely used in literary, journalistic,

scientific, and colloquial literature.

Interrogative sentences constructed using the -mi predicate are characteristic of colloquial

speech and are more often used in incomplete sentences. Interrogative sentences formed using the

-a suffix are also characteristic of colloquial speech and are used both in complete and incomplete

sentences. This suffix can sometimes be used independently as an interrogative sentence. This

happens when the speaker does not hear or understand the listener's thoughts: for example, "And?"

said the eshan with wide eyes. The -a suffix is used in interrogative sentences expressing surprise.

Such sentences are more often used in artistic, journalistic, and colloquial styles.

Sometimes, to express the content of the question more strongly, the modal word "maybe"

- which means doubt - can also be used together with the interrogative suffix:

-Maybe we should treat him in the hospital?

-Is his head in place?! Is this a head or a pumpkin? Do you know who he is?

(“Shaytanat”, 3-book, 131-page)

Interrogative sentences constructed using intonation alone are also characteristic of

colloquial speech, and they also include words such as "probably" and "while". Such interrogative

sentences have a tone of assumption, suspicion.

In addition, in speech, sometimes the speaker continues his thought without waiting for the

answer to the question. In this case, the answer is understood from the text and the situation:

Now

look up there; did you see that madrasa? Yes, that's right. You pass by that place and you come to

a corner.

An interrogative sentence can contain more than one interrogative pronoun. This expresses

a question about several things that are unknown to the speaker. Who wants to talk about what?

In interrogative sentences, the interrogative pronoun where sometimes acts as an

introductory word and serves to strengthen emphasis: -

What happened? Who said what? Tell me?

Sometimes interrogative sentences come one after the other and do not require a specific

answer. They serve only to fully reveal the inner world of the characters of the work and to

effectively express an idea. Such interrogative sentences are often used in artistic, colloquial, and

journalistic styles. For example:

Shahista!.. Where does this girl live? Can I see her?

Interrogative sentences are almost never used in official legal texts.

The use of questions in the scientific style is quite extensive and productive. In textual

forms, interrogative sentences are sometimes used to clearly imagine the object of research or

sometimes as a means of drawing the reader's attention to a particular issue. For example:

What

aspects of a (certain) phenomenon are unknown to the ice? Or What is an equation called?

Interrogative sentences are spoken in colloquial speech with interrogative intonation. In

this case, if the question is expressed using special lexical and grammatical means, it is spoken

with a strong tone. The tone rises. Depending on which part of the sentence the stress falls on, the

tone can change. For example, if the logical stress falls on the part at the beginning of the

interrogative sentence, the tone falls. If it falls on the part at the end of the sentence, the tone rises.

If it falls on the part in the middle of the sentence, the tone rises and then falls. In

interrogative sentences formed using interrogative pronouns, the intonation rises in the

interrogative pronoun.

Sometimes in the text, interrogative sentence types are used in a mixed sequence. However,

it is clear from the content of the text which of the sentences requires an answer and which do not.

For example:

-Asad, are you here, my little mare, - he said in a cheerful voice. Then he looked at Jalil,

who had followed Asadbek, with a smile: -Yes, you little rascal, are you here too? May God forbid

that you two fall in love. You little rascal, are you here in this world? You've disappeared like a

hundred soums, haven't you? I don't hold any grudge against Asad, he has a lot of work to do.

You're a man of your own, it's worth it even if I scold you.

-Jalil, who's going to get into trouble no matter what, huh? I brought this mare of yours

here. Even if the moon comes up, even if the sun comes up, what kind of a lie is this, my father?

-Is this a lie... I miss your father. I'm about to ride a wooden horse and set off on a journey.

(“Shaytanat”, 4-book, 208-page)

In this example, the interrogative sentences in the father's speech, "Yes, shalpangkulok,

have you come?", "Shalpangkulok, are you here in this world? You've disappeared like a hundred

soums, haven't you?" do not require a response from the listener, but rather convey the meaning

that you haven't come for a long time, come often. In the speech of Jalil, the next participant in the

conversation, rhetorical interrogative sentences are used together with pure interrogative

sentences: of these, the sentence forms "No matter what happens, Jalil, is the one who gets into

trouble, huh?", "Even if the moon comes out, even if the sun comes out, huh?" express a rhetorical

question in content, while the form "What kind of sleep is this, my father?" is a pure interrogative

sentence, that is, one that requires an answer. These meanings are understood by the speaker and,

in turn, the listener. The speaker and the listener, in turn, understand and comprehend the meaning

and why (for what purpose?) the questions are used. In addition to grammatical means, the tempo

of speech, tone, and the interlocutors' knowledge and experience of each other help in this.

Conclusion

Interrogative means are one of the important elements of language, which serve to obtain

information, develop a conversation, and attract the attention of the interlocutor in the process of

communication. Such means include interrogative pronouns, interrogative loads, intonation, and

syntactic structures. Depending on each language and speech situation, the methods of expressing

the interrogative content have their own characteristics, which are pragmatically used depending

on the intention of the interlocutor and the context of communication. The study of interrogative

means plays an important role in organizing effective communication. Interrogative sentences are

used very often in most works of fiction. Interrogative sentences are presented in monological and

dialogical speeches of the characters in the work, expressing their thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

The writer also conveys his thoughts more clearly through the monologic and dialogic

speeches of the characters. In addition, interrogative sentences increase the impact of the work and

serve to express its meaning and essence more deeply.
