Exclamatory sentences in Slovenian grammar, just like in many other languages, are used to express strong feelings or emotions such as excitement, surprise, admiration, or strong agreement. These sentences usually end with an exclamation mark to emphasize the intended high-level intensity of the emotion being communicated. In Slovenian, exclamatory sentences can take various forms and structures, but often use the interjections “Kako” (How) and “Tako” (So) for amplification.
