How do you conjugate verbs in the informal command form???

- Command form is used to ____________________________________________________________________________________
- The _____________________________________________ commands are formed the same way as the present tense
_____________________________ form.
Ej: Hablar - ____________ + _____________ = habla
1. Compra (tú ) el anillo. Buy the ring. 2. Come la patata. Eat the potato

- The _____________________________________________ commands are formed by removing the ending and

adding the OPPOSITE tú verb ending. (For –AR, use –ER/-IR verb endings. For –ER/-IR use, -AR)
Ej: Hablar - ___________ + ______________ = No hables
1. No camines. Do not walk. 2. No escribas. Do not write.
¡Práctica! – Translate the following commands.
1. Turn right. ____________________________________________ 5. Drive straight. _____________________________________
