A sentence that asks questions is called an interrogative sentence. In other words, an interrogative sentence is a sentence that gathers information regarding something. It usually starts with an interrogative pronoun like <a href="https://grammarbrain.com/comma-before-which/">which</a>, who, or what, and ends with a question mark. It also begins with an <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auxiliary_verb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">auxiliary verb</a> or a <a href="https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/modal%20verb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">modal verb</a> and ends with a question mark.</p> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Examples:</strong></h4> <ul class="wp-block-list"><li><a href="https://grammarbrain.com/where-vs-were/">Where</a> do <a href="https://grammarbrain.com/personal-pronouns/">you</a> live?</li><li>Where is India located on <a href="https://grammarbrain.com/a-vs-the/">the</a> map?</li><li>Do you <a href="https://grammarbrain.com/past-tense-of-eat/">eat</a> meat?
