Mandatos negativos con tú (p. 122)
• Negative tú commands, used to informally tell one person not to do something,
are formed differently from affirmative tú commands. Use the following rules to
form negative tú commands:
1) Put the verb in the yo form of the present tense.
2) Get rid of the -o at the end of the verb.
3) For -ar verbs, add the ending -es.
For -er and -ir verbs, add the ending -as.

caminar: no camines--------- beber: no bebas----------- escribir: no escribas
• Following these rules, verbs that have irregular yo forms or stem changes in the
present tense will have the same stem changes in the negative tú commands.

poner: no pongas-------------- obedecer: no obedezcas
servir: no sirvas----------------- contar: cuentes

If you were not in class today 3-12-09 you need to make up the positive tú commands quiz that we took today 3-12-09. The quiz only covered the positive tú commands.

• Affirmative tú commands are informal commands telling one person to do
something. To form them, you use the present indicative él/ella/Ud. form of the
verb. Note that this also applies to stem-changing verbs.
Toma vitaminas. Take vitamins
Pide una ensalada. Order a salad
