Made to give orders
As well as needing to follow the instructions given on your exam papers, you may also need to know how to write some of them as part of your answers too. Here is everything you need to know about instructions and commands.
The command form of the verb is used to give instructions and commands. They are formed in a similar way to the Regular Past Tense, but the endings are:
· -a when speaking to one person
· -wch when speaking to more than one person or when showing respect
Similar to the Past Tense, the verbs "bod", "mynd", "dod", "cael" and "gwneud" are irregular verbs.
