Negative tú commands are used to
tell someone (familiar) what NOT
to do.
To form negative tú commands, you have to go through
three steps.
#1 Start with the yo form of the
verb
comer como
#2 Take off the “o”
como com-
#3 Add the opposite “tú” ending.
For –ar verbs, add –es.For –er/-ir verbs add –
as.
com- comas
Don’t forget to add “no” to the beginning
of negative commands.
No comas... = Don’t eat...
doblar
no dobles
don’t turn!
comer
no comas
don’t eat!
escribir
no escribas
don’t write!
Don’t forget, you still have to stem-change if you are
using a stem-changing verb.
volver
no vuelvas
don’t return!
pedir
no pidas
don’t ask for! don’t order!
sentar
no sientes
don’t sit!
You also have to watch out for
verbs with irregular “yo”
forms.

no tengas
don’t have!
poner
no pongas
don’t put!
seguir
no sigas
don’t continue!don’t follow!
decir
no digas
don’t say! don’t tell!

hacer
no hagas
don’t make!don’t do!
venir

Ex 12

Remember:
• Usted Commands (we did before break) are formed by taking the verb in the Yo form and switching endings
• Tener – tenga or no tenga . You don’t have a difference between pos/neg like the Tu commands.
• Tu commands (what we are working on now)
• Positive – El/Ella form of the verb – no ending switch (lavar = lava = wash!_)
• Negative – Yo form of the verb – switch endings. (lavar = no lavas)
• It’s important to remember the Yo form for negative so you do the irregular YO’s correctly
• Also – only difference between Usted commands and Tu commands are the person you are talking to. Usted – formal/Tu - informal
