Q
indicate mood
A
The indicative mood is a verb form which makes a statement or asks a question. For example:
Jack sings every Friday.
(This is a verb in the indicative mood.)
Sing us a song, Jack.
(This verb is not in the indicative mood. It is in the imperative mood.)
The vast majority of sentences are in the indicative mood.
The main verb (i.e., the finite verb) in a declarative sentence (a statement) or an interrogative sentence (a question) will be in the indicative mood.
