    IMPERATIVES

    We use imperative sentences to tell someone to do something. We use the imperative for the

    following situations:

     give a command – (strongly tell someone what to do)

     make a request – (ask someone to do something)

     give an instruction – (tell someone how to do something)

     make a suggestion – (share an idea for someone to think about)

    Note:

    Requests often use 'please'.

    Suggestions often begin with 'try'.

    We use the base form of the verb to form an imperative sentence. The base form of a verb is the verb

    without 'to' or any special endings.

    We use 'don't' to form the negative imperative.

    Imperative sentences are short and simple. An imperative sentence can end with a period or an

    exclamation point:
    When the imperative is a command, we use an exclamation point: "Stop!", "Come here!"

    When the imperative is a request, an instruction, or advice, we usually use a period: "Pass the pasta,

    please."

    Read the sentences to see how we use imperatives. Then complete the tasks that follow.

    Traducción

    Imperativos

    Usamos oraciones imperativas para decirle a alguien que haga algo. Utilizamos el imperativo para las

    siguientes situaciones:

    *Dar una orden - (decirle a alguien con firmeza lo que debe hacer)

    *Hacer una petición - (pedir a alguien que haga algo)


    *Dar una instrucción - (decirle a alguien cómo hacer algo)

    *Hacer una sugerencia - (compartir una idea para que alguien piense en ella)

    Nota:

    En las peticiones se suele utilizar "por favor".

    Las sugerencias suelen empezar con "try".

    Se utiliza la forma básica del verbo para formar una frase imperativa. La forma básica de un verbo es el

    verbo sin 'to' ni ninguna terminación especial.

    Utilizamos "no" para formar el imperativo negativo.

    Las frases imperativas son cortas y sencillas. Una frase imperativa puede terminar con un punto o un

    signo de exclamación:

    Cuando el imperativo es una orden, se utiliza un signo de exclamación: "¡Detente!", "¡Ven aquí!".

    Cuando el imperativo es una petición, una instrucción o un consejo, solemos utilizar un punto: "Pásame la

    pasta, por favor".
