Capítulo 7A-Realidades 2 p. 356 Negative tú commands Capítulo 7A-Realidades 2 p. 356
What are Negative tú commands? They are used to tell someone what NOT to do and that ‘someone’ is usually a friend or someone we are familiar with.
How do we form a negative tú command? There are 3 easy steps: 1. Start with the YO form present tense. 2. Drop the ‘O’. 3. Add –es for an –AR verb and add –as for an -ER/-IR verb and don’t forget the NO!!!
For example: 1. Añadir=Añado 2. Añad- 3 For example: 1. Añadir=Añado 2. Añad- 3. NO añadas No añadas sal porque es malo para la salud.
Another normal verb: 1. Hablar=Hablo 2. Habl- 3 Another normal verb: 1. Hablar=Hablo 2. Habl- 3. No hables No hables inglés en la clase de español
Let’s try one more: 1. Comer=Como 2. Com- 3 Let’s try one more: 1. Comer=Como 2. Com- 3. No comas ¡No comas en esta clase!
What about verbs with an irregular YO form? You will follow the same rules for the normal verbs. For example: Tener=Tengo Drop the ‘O’=Teng- Add the new ending=Tengas…and don’t forget the ‘NO’ NO TENGAS
