  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/usted form in the present tense. To state the do’s of most verbs, drop the –s ending of the verb. STATEMENT COMMAND (tú) caminas ¡Camina! Walk! (tú) comes ¡Come! Eat! (tú) duermes ¡Duerme! Sleep!

  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 ¡Hablaahora!

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

  9. 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!

  11. ****IMPORTANT NOTE:If a verb is irregular in the YO form, it will be irregular in the negative tú command. Be careful of “gogo” verbs, and of “stem changing” verbs.Also watch out for car/gar/zar verbs

  12. Let’s look at negative commands… • These verbs are stem changers… • Dormir – to sleep Don’t sleep in class! - Verb dormir- in tú form = duermes - Change –es to –as and remember stem change - ¡No duermas! ¡No duermas en clase!
