Formal & Group Commands

I can give polite/formal singular, plural, and useful group instructions using appropriate command forms.

What you will learnGive commands to one formal listener, multiple listeners, and a group that includes you.
What you are learningSelect among 5 usted forms, 5 ustedes forms, and 5 limited useful “let’s…” forms without opening the full subjunctive.
How to know you're readyMatch the command form to a changed audience and purpose. Reveal can help you learn; try the same skill again without Reveal to check yourself.
Lesson 1 · Module 3

Usted Commands

What you are learning:I can give a polite/formal instruction using usted.

English uses the same base command regardless of formal speech. Spanish selects a specific formal singular command form for one respectfully addressed listener.

Module 50 Examples
hable
speak / talk
Module 50 command form.
coma
eat
Module 50 command form.
pase
come in / go ahead / Ready
Module 50 command form.
espere
wait
Module 50 command form.
diga
say / tell
Module 50 command form.
For now:Use these exact formal singular command forms only. Do not generalize a full set of subjunctive forms, and do not attach command pronouns yet.
English ↔ Spanish comparison:English uses the same base command regardless of formal speech. Spanish selects a specific formal singular command form for one respectfully addressed listener.

Nosotros Commands — Check & Useful practice

What you are learning:I can recognize and use a small set of useful nosotros commands.

English often uses “let’s + verb” for a shared action. Spanish can use a first-person plural command form; Module 50 limits practice to the five learned forms shown here.

Module 50 Examples
vamos
let's go
RG2-0400 · Module 50 command form.
hablemos
let's speak / let's talk
RG2-0398 · Module 50 command form.
comamos
let's eat
RG2-0396 · Module 50 command form.
esperemos
let's wait / let's hope, deto finish context
RG2-0397 · Module 50 command form.
vayamos
let's go
RG2-0401 · Module 50 command form.
One formal listenerUse the exact Lesson 1 command.
Multiple listenersUse the exact Lesson 2 group command.
Group including youUse only the limited Lesson 3 “let’s…” commands.
For now:This is a limited useful 'let’s...' command set, not a introduce of the full nosotros command or subjunctive pattern.
