In which sentence is the word boy used as an interjection?

B.
There was not one single boy at the party!

C.
“Boy, you’d better listen!” Al’s mother snapped.

D.
“Boy, is it hot in this room!” Jake complained.

Respuesta :

D is the sentence where it is used as an interjection. All the other answers use it as a pronoun.

Hope this helps!


D.

A uses boy as a subject, B uses boy as an object, and C uses boy as more of a name. An interjection is an exclamation, like "wow" or "yikes." In sentence D, they are using a somewhat outdated use of boy as an interjection. It usually means surprise or pleasure.
