ex⋅cla⋅ma⋅tion
noun
- the act of exclaiming; outcry; loud complaint or protest: The speech was continually interrupted by rude exclamations.
- an interjection.
- Rhetoric. ecphonesis.
As you can see from the definition above the volume and emphasis with which you say the sentence can make the difference between an exclamation and a declaration or comment.
I could definitely state:
"Take her home now" without exclaiming it. Since we can't hear the statement we can't answer with any certainty. That is precisely why exclamation marks are used; so that we can know without hearing the sentence.
