Topic:    IMPERATIVES  

Imperatives are verbs used to give orders, commands, instructions, warnings, advices, invitations and (if you use "please") to make a request. 

In the imperative the person is not usually mentioned.

 For example:

Instructions: Open your books.

Warnings: Look out!

Offers: Have some juice.

Advices: Stay at home. Don't go to school if you are ill.

Requests: Pass the sugar, please.

Invitations: Come for dinner. 

To make a negative imperative, put "do not" or "don't" before the verb:

For example:

• Don't go! 
• Do not walk on the grass.

You can also use "let's" before the verb if you are including yourself in the imperative. The negative of "let's" is "let's not".

For example:

• Let's stop now.
• Let's have some lunch.
• Let's not argue
• Let's not tell her about it.

EXERCISE:

1.     Turn the positive imperatives into negatives, and the negatives into positives:

1.Make me a sandwich.    .............................................................

3. Don't look at him. ....................................................................

4. Sit down. ................................................................................

5. Don't sing.  ...............................................................................
6. Don't go to sleep.  ....................................................................

1.     Put the words in the correct order:

3. litter / park / in / drop / the / don't . ............................................
4. run / don't / classroom / in / the. .................................................
5. friends / Mark's / listen / don't / to .  ..........................................
