We use imperatives for different reasons, such as telling people what to do, giving instructions and advice, making recommendations and suggestions, and for making offers. Come in and sit down, please. Don't open the window - it's cold. Put the coin in the slot and press the red button. Don't ask her - she doesn't know. See the doctor - it's the best thing. Have a bit more wine.

"Emphatic imperative We can make an emphatic imperative with do + imperative. This is common in polite requests, complaints and apologies. Do sit down. Do be a bit more careful. Do forgive me - I didn't mean to interrupt. Passive imperative

To tell people to arrange for things to be done to them, we often use get + past participle. Get vaccinated as soon as you can. Do(n't) be Although do is not normally used as an auxiliary with be, do is used before be in negative and emphatic imperatives. Don' t be silly! Do be quiet! Subject with imperative The imperative does not usually have a subject, but we can use a noun or pronoun to make it clear who we are speaking to. Mary come here - everybody else stay where you are. Somebody answer the phone. Nobody move. Relax, everybody. You before an imperative can suggest emphatic persuasion or anger. You just sit down and relax for a bit. You take your hands off me! Question tags After imperatives, the normal question tags are will you? won't you? would you? can you? and could you? After negative imperatives, will you? is used. Give me a hand, will you? Sit down, won't you? Get me something to drink, can you? Be quiet, can't you? Don't tell anybody, will you? Word order Always and never come before imperatives. Always remember what I told you.
