An exclamation is a sudden and strong expression of emotion, often shown in speech or writing. It can convey feelings like surprise, excitement, anger, or joy. In writing, exclamations are usually followed by an exclamation mark to emphasize the emotion. For example, someone might shout "Wow!" when they are amazed or "Stop!" when they are upset. Exclamations are used to show intense reactions and add energy or urgency to communication.
