uitroepend

Uitroepend is a Dutch term derived from uitroepen, meaning to exclaim or proclaim. In grammar, it functions as the present participle used adjectivally to indicate utterances or constructions that express strong emotion, surprise, or emphasis. It is most commonly applied to describe exclamatory forms, such as exclamatory sentences or clauses, which convey heightened affect and often feature an exclamation mark.

In typical usage, uitroepend can modify a noun or clause: for example, "de uitroepende zin" (the exclamatory sentence). It can also appear in participial phrases that describe manner of speech, as in "de spreker, uitroepend, riep..." (the speaker, exclaiming, cried out). The term is mainly encountered in grammatical descriptions, linguistic analysis, and literary narration.

Relation to other terms: uitroepend is related to the concept of uitroep (interjection) and to exclamatoire or exclamatorisch labels used in linguistic classification. While "uitroepend" emphasizes the manner of exclamation, the noun uitroep refers to the actual exclamation itself. In modern Dutch usage, more common labels for exclamatory forms are terms like exclamatoir or exclamatorisch, but uitroepend remains a valid descriptive option in grammars and scholarly texts.
