Using Imperatives

10/1/2018

 
Picture






​The imperative is used to give commands and orders. The form of the verb used for the imperative is the base form of the main verb, which is used without a subject.
  • Walk to the corner, turn right, and cross the road.
  • Open your mouth and say ‘Aaaah’.
  • Although the main feature of sentences in the imperative is that they have no grammatical subject, they do have an understood subject, ‘you’.
