Question: 1 / 400

Which sentence expresses the indicative mood?

Go to the ball game

I wish that he would go to the ball game

They are going to the ball game

The indicative mood is used to make factual statements or pose questions about reality. In this context, the sentence "They are going to the ball game" conveys a straightforward statement that describes a current action or situation. It presents the information without expressing a wish, command, or hypothetical situation, fulfilling the criteria for the indicative mood.

In contrast, the other sentences either suggest a command, express a desire, or describe a situation without assertively stating it as a fact. For instance, the first sentence is a command, the second indicates a wish rather than a statement of fact, and the fourth presents a participial phrase that sets the scene but does not establish a factual statement about the dolphins or the ball game. Thus, the choice that accurately reflects the indicative mood is the one that clearly states a fact without ambiguity.
