Annotation: Interrogative sentences are the linguistic manifestation of a speech act with the purpose of asking a question. In other words, a question sentence is a syntactic device that corresponds to a certain type of speech act. Therefore, while describing the question sentence as a surface structure with certain syntactic features, it should also be noted that it has semantic properties. In addition, the question structure is a product of speech thinking that reflects speech activity. The mentioned features interact in the structure of the query and form a single inseparable whole.

Keywords: Speech structure, question sentence, semantics, pragmalinguistics, speech act, intonation, intention, connotative meaning, root meaning.
