  2. Questions: The indicative mood is used to ask questions to gather information or seek clarification.

    • Example: "Did you see the movie?"
  3. Facts and Reality: The indicative mood is used to express facts, describe events, and state things that are believed to be true.

    • Example: "The sun rises in the east."
  4. Opinions: The indicative mood allows for the expression of personal opinions or beliefs.

    • Example: "I think she is talented."
  5. Certainty: The indicative mood is used to convey certainty or confidence about something.

    • Example: "They will arrive on time."
  6. Verb Forms: In the indicative mood, verbs take their standard forms according to the tense, such as present, past, or future.

Can anyone please review my essay and share your thoughts about it by sharing a band score of  0 to 9. Your review would really mean a lot to me. So that I can improve my level of writing and improve my band score. Thank you so much, a lot, if you were spending your own time for correcting my essay and reading my comment.
