Imperative mood

The imperative is a grammatical mood that forms commands or requests, including the giving of prohibition or permission, or any other kind of advice or exhortation.

An example of a verb in the imperative mood is be in the English sentence "Please be quiet". Imperatives of this type imply a second-person subject (you); some languages also have first- and third-person imperatives, with the meaning of "let's (do something)" or "let him/her/them (do something)" (these forms may alternatively be called cohortative and jussive).

Imperative mood can be denoted by the glossing abbreviation IMP. It is one of the irrealis moods.

Formation

Imperative mood is often expressed using special conjugated verb forms. Like other finite verb forms, imperatives often inflect for person and number. Second-person imperatives (used for ordering or requesting performance directly from the person being addressed) are most common, but some languages also have imperative forms for the first and third persons (alternatively called cohortative and jussive respectively).

    The imperative is used for direct commands and instructions. Whenever we want to tell someone to do something, or sometimes just how to go about doing it, we use the imperative. Forming the Imperative: The imperative is formed, in the affirmative, by simply using the verb in its base form, with no conjugation whatsoever. For example: Work ⇒ Work on your homework!

The imperative is formed, in the negative, as follows: Do + not + verb Do + not + shoot the ball! Don’t shoot the ball! Examples: • Do not come with me to school! • Don’t ask me out ever again! • Don’t use the needle-nose pliers, your can do that with your hands. • Don’t take highway 33 at night, you’ll get lost if you’re not familiar with the area.

What is the "imperative"? How do I use it ? What does it actually imply? Above all, the imperative is a grammatical mood If you use the imperative form, it means that you are addressing a person or a group of people. You can either address the second person subject: YOU or the first person subject, singular or plural, WE (including yourself in the group you are addressing) So two forms. In some languages ​​there are many more. So the imperative in English is rather simple. There is the affirmative and the negative form, and two forms for each of those forms. You can use the imperative to give out direct orders: SHUT THE DOOR (close the door) - DO NOT SHUT THE DOOR (don't close the door) So as you can see, in order to create my imperative, I simply need the infinitive without "TO" (the bare infinitive) This is the case for the second person singular and the second person plural. You put your infinitive without "TO" at beginning of a sentence: you get an imperative. SHUT THE DOOR If you want the negative form, you take the infinitive without "TO" and before you add DO NOT or DON'T (NEVER DOES NOT/DOESN'T) So we: SHUT THE DOOR - DO NOT SHUT THE DOOR / DON'T SHUT THE DOOR In what other cases can I use the imperative? I can use it to give instructions OPEN YOUR BOOK - DO NOT OPEN YOUR BOOK (Don't open your book) I can also use it for invitations HAVE ANOTHER CUP OF TEA LET'S GO We have our second option here: LET'S So if I want to give an order to a group I take the infinitive without "TO" and I add before "LET'S" which is the contracted form of LET US So LET'S GO = LET US GO The negative forms: LET'S NOT GO or LET US NOT GO. That is the first person plural: US You can also see the imperative on signs and notices DO NOT ENTER - PULL THE DOOR etc. Finally, we can also use the imperative to give friendly, informal advice SPEAK TO HER - LET'S WAIT A LITTLE Imperative = verb infinitive without "TO" and before we can add DO NOT - LET'S - LET'S NOT A few tips for the classroom: If you want to change the tone and be less direct, less assertive: You can add PLEASE (Please shut the door - Shut the door, please) You can add DO to an affirmative imperative form. You add it at the very beginning: DO SHUT THE DOOR DO OPEN YOUR BOOK DO HAVE ANOTHER CUP OF TEA That makes it softer. Or you can add a "tag question" at the end You can say SHUT THE DOOR, WILL YOU? LET'S GO, SHALL WE? If all that is too unfamiliar, do not forget to watch the video on the "tag questions" Or you can also resort to alternatives if you're not entirely comfortable with this form yet. You can phrase it differently I EXPECT YOU TO SHALL WE or YOU MIGHT WANT TO So you have all these different forms to give informal advice, invite or give instructions That's all for today.

The imperative mood in English

The imperative is used for direct commands and instructions. Whenever we want to tell someone to do something, or sometimes just how to go about doing it, we use the imperative. Forming the Imperative: The imperative is formed, in the affirmative, by simply using the verb in its base form, with no conjugation whatsoever. For example: Work ⇒ Work on your homework! Travel ⇒ Travel safely on the interstate! Read ⇒ Read your book, Timmy! More examples: • To get to my house, take the highway and turn left on Michigan Road. • Tell Mom I will be home for supper. • Study for your exam so you can get a good grade! • Fix your attitude young man! • Tell Ms. Foster that I am sick today and cannot make class. • As you can see, not all imperative phrases are urgent, harsh affairs, especially when giving directions (as in the first example in the list). • Whenever there is a certain urgency involved, however, an exclamation point (!) is used to make this clear. The imperative is formed, in the negative, as follows: Do + not + verb Do + not + shoot the ball! Don’t shoot the ball! Examples: • Do not come with me to school! • Don’t ask me out ever again! • Don’t use the needle-nose pliers, your can do that with your hands. • Don’t take highway 33 at night, you’ll get lost if you’re not familiar with the area.

Imperative mood

The imperative is a grammatical mood that forms commands or requests, including the giving of prohibition or permission, or any other kind of advice or exhortation.

An example of a verb in the imperative mood is be in the English sentence "Please be quiet". Imperatives of this type imply a second-person subject (you); some languages also have first- and third-person imperatives, with the meaning of "let's (do something)" or "let him/her/them (do something)" (these forms may alternatively be called cohortative and jussive).

Imperative mood can be denoted by the glossing abbreviation IMP. It is one of the irrealis moods.

Formation

Imperative mood is often expressed using special conjugated verb forms. Like other finite verb forms, imperatives often inflect for person and number. Second-person imperatives (used for ordering or requesting performance directly from the person being addressed) are most common, but some languages also have imperative forms for the first and third persons (alternatively called cohortative and jussive respectively).
