<em>Negative Informal "Tú" Commands</em>
<em />
<em>There are many different types of commands in Spanish, including affirmative tú commands, formal commands, nosotros commands, indirect commands, and negative tú</em>
<em> </em>
<em>commands. We'll take a look at negative tú commands in this article. ¡No te espantes!</em>
<em> </em>
<em>(Don't freak out!) These command forms aren't too tricky.</em>
<em>Overview</em>
<em />
<em>Negative informal commands, also called negative tú commands, are used to tell a friend, family member the same age as you or younger, classmate, child, or pet not to do something.</em>
<em>No compres la camisa.</em>
<em>Do not buy the shirt.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>No aprendas español.</em>
<em>Do not learn Spanish.</em>
<em> </em>
<em>¡No escribas el ensayo!</em>
<em>Do not write the essay!</em>
<em> </em>
<em />
<em>Always make sure you put no</em>
<em> </em>
<em>or another negative word like nunca</em>
<em> </em>
<em>(never) in front of the verb when forming a negative informal command.</em>
<em>Negative Informal Imperative Forms</em>
<em />
<em>The negative informal imperative, yet another term used to describe negative tú commands, is formed differently than the affirmative informal imperative. It is actually formed much like the negative formal imperative in that it uses the present subjunctive form of the verb.</em>
<em />
<em>If you already know the formal command forms, you can simply add an s to the end of the formal command to form a negative informal command.</em>
