Abstract

Interrogative sentences, or questions, are not merely tools for eliciting information; they are critical drivers of children's language acquisition and cognitive development. This article explores the multifaceted roles of interrogatives in shaping children's grammatical competence, expanding their vocabulary, fostering cognitive curiosity, and promoting social interaction. We examine the typical developmental trajectory of interrogative acquisition, analyze the linguistic and cognitive processes involved, and discuss the implications for educators, caregivers, and language therapists
