Is the perk name "remember me" a question form?

Im korean translating team member.
I want to know about tone of perk name "remember me".

I remember that freddy said "remember me?" in Nightmare.
But some people claim it is just a declarative sentence.

What is right?

(Sorry about my bad english. Reading is easy, but writing short is a even hard challenge to me.)

    It is kinda a declaration yeah. He’s not like “please remember me” it’s more in the time of “Ive left my mark on you, memories of me will haunt you.” How that translates to Korean I’m not sure. I’m assuming you asked because in that language the way the phrase remember me is used changed what word it translates to?

    I believe it’s based of Freddy using it as a question in the remake but in the perk name it’s most likely meant to be a statement, as far as I can tell. The reason I think this is because the original movies Freddy needs people to remember him so he can keep killing. For example, in “Freddy vs Jason” the main point of him waking up Jason is so the people of Springwood would remember him because they had forgotten about him. The point of the perk in a lore sense I think is by him slashing you it makes it harder to escape the more damage he does since that fear makes him stronger. Therefore, making the exits take longer to open. That’s at least my interpretation.

    It isn't a declaration.

    No, this sentence would be in Imperative form because it gives a command.

    Freddy is commanding the Survivor to Remember him when he gains a token. Freddy is implanting the order of "Remember Freddy Kruger," into the Survivor because that's how Freddy comes back to life, and that's how he is truly killed.

    If no one remembers him, he cannot invade their dreams. This is the entire premise behind the movie Freddy vs Jason.

    You contradicted yourself by saying it is not a declaration then saying it is not a question.
    The OP was asking if he commanding you to remember him or if he is asking you if you remember him

    What? I didn't contradict myself? There are 4 sentence types. Declaration, Imperative, Exclamatory, and Interrogative. The sentence "Remember Me" is neither a Declaration nor is it a Question. It is a command.

    People seem to think a declaration and imperative are the same thing. They are not. A declaration simply declares something. "That shirt is red." Is a declaration. "Go wear a red shirt," is a command and therefore in Imperative form.

    Is the Freddy lore, Freddy loses his power if people(not individuals but a society) forget about him. Thats why he keeps killing people, so that his name spreads and he become stronger.
      
    It might have something to do with that.

    No question mark therefore imperative (command). Weirdkid is correct
