What are affirmative commands in Spanish?

In Spanish, affirmative commands are instructions or requests given in a positive or encouraging tone. They are typically formed by using the present tense of a verb in the imperative mood, without including the subject pronoun. For example, "habla" (speak), "come" (eat), or "duerme" (sleep) are all examples of affirmative commands in Spanish.

How are affirmative commands formed in the tú form?

Affirmative commands in the tú form are formed by using the third person singular form of the present tense of the verb, and dropping the -s. For example, to form the affirmative command for the verb "hablar" (to speak) in the tú form, you would use the third person singular form "habla" (he/she speaks) and drop the -s to get "habla tú" (you speak).

How do you form an affirmative command in the vosotros form?

To form an affirmative command in the vosotros form in Spanish, you simply take the present indicative form of the verb, drop the final -r, and add -d to the stem of the verb. For example, with the verb "hablar," the command in the vosotros form would be "hablad" (speake) to tell a group to speak.

How are affirmative commands formed in the formal singular form using the pronoun "usted"?

Affirmative commands in the formal singular form using the pronoun "usted" are formed by using the present indicative form of the verb. For regular -ar verbs, you would simply remove the -ar ending and add -e; for -er and -ir verbs, you would remove the -er or -ir ending and add -a. For example, for the verb "comer" (to eat), the command would be "¡Coma usted!" and for the verb "escribir" (to write), the command would be "¡Escriba usted!

What is the difference between informal singular commands and formal singular commands in Spanish?

The main difference between informal singular commands and formal singular commands in Spanish is the conjugation of verbs. Informal singular commands are addressed to someone you're familiar with and are conjugated in the imperative form using the tú form of the verb. On the other hand, formal singular commands are used when addressing someone you need to show respect to or someone you don't know well, and are conjugated in the imperative form using the usted form of the verb.

How do you form an affirmative command in the plural form using the pronoun "ustedes"?

To form an affirmative command in the plural form using "ustedes," simply take the present-tense form of the verb and add -n to the end. For example, to say "eat," which is "comer" in Spanish, the command in the plural form for "ustedes" would be "¡Coman!" which translates to "Eat!".
