  1. WALK! Informal (tú) CommandsEspañol 3 – U2L1 SLEEP! EAT!

  2. In Spanish… • To tell someone to do or not to do something, use commands. • When we want to tell a friend or someone we speak informally with to do something we use tú commands… • ¡Come! – EAT! • ¡Camina!- WALK! • ¡Duerme!- SLEEP! What looks familiar about these endings?

  3. Affirmative Commands • Commands are used for both do’s and don’ts • Lets begin with the do’s (affirmative tú commands) • Affirmative tú commands are the same as the él/ella/ustedform in the present tense. Present tense: Juan recoge y recicla las latas. Juan collects and recycles the cans. Affirmative tú command Juan, ¡ recoge y recicla las latas, por favor ! Juan, collect and recycle the cans, please !

  4. Let’s look at affirmative commands… • Open the window!… • Verb Abrir • Put it in the él/ella/ud. form = abre ¡Abre la ventana!

  5. Let’s look at affirmative commands… • Speak now!... • Verb hablar • Put hablar in the él/ella/ud. form= habla ¡Habla ahora!

  6. Let’s look at affirmative commands… • Drink water!... • Verb beber • Put beber in the él/ella/ud. Form = bebe ¡Bebe agua!

  7. Irregular Affirmative tú commands • As you learned in Spanish 2, the following verbs are irregular in the affirmative tú commands: • Venir (to come) Ven • Decir (to say/tell) Di • Salir (to leave) Sal • Hacer (to do/make) Haz • Tener (to have) Ten • Ir (to go) Ve • Poner (to put) Pon • Ser (to be) Sé • You can remember these with the saying: “Vin Diesel has ten weapons, eh!”

  8. Irregular Affirmative tú commands – How to remember… • OR, for those of you who remember better with a song: • (To the tune of “Row, row, row your boat”) Haz, ten, ven aquí Pon, ve, sé, sal, di Do or make Have, come here Put, go, be, leave, tell

  10. Negative Commands • If you want to make a tú command negative (don’t…), you have to change the verb completely. You must follow this 3 step process. 1. Go to the yo form. 2. Drop the “o” 3. Add the opposite tú ending (-ar verbs=es, er/ir verbs=as) ****DON’T FORGET THE NO!!!!!***** STATEMENTCOMMAND (tú) fumas ¡No fumes! Don’t smoke! (tú) corres ¡No corras! Don’t run! (tú) duermes ¡No duermas! Don’t sleep!

  12. Let’s look at negative commands… • Don’t choose this sign!... • Verb elegir • Put elegir in the yo form= elijo • Drop the “o” (elij) • Add the opposite tú ending = elijas • DON’T FORGET THE NO ¡No elijas este letrero!
