Key "Grammar" terms
Key "Grammar" terms
Familiar - this means you are communicating directly to someone that you would call "tú" (not "usted")
Affirmative - this means the command is telling someone what to do (not what not to do)
Negative - the command is telling someone not to do something
Command / Imperative / Mandato - all of these words are synonyms and mean the same thing. A command is when you tell someone in a direct way to do or not do something. "Could you/Would you do" are not commands.
Regular - they follow a set of rules
Irregular - they don't follow rules and are what they are
