2. L’IMPÉRATIF (the imperative; a.k.a. “commands”)

3. What are the two subject pronouns used to form “commands” in the imperative? TU (informal) VOUS (formal/plural)

4. Let’s start out easy… REGULAR “IR” and “RE” VERBS 

5. Take the regular present tense forms of tu and vous to make a command! “IR” Verbs (tu) (vous) FINIS! FINISSEZ! CHOISIS! CHOISISSEZ! “RE” Verbs (tu) (vous) ATTENDS! ATTENDEZ! VENDS! VENDEZ!

6. And now for those pesky “ER” verbs

7. SPECIAL RULE: when giving a command in the “tu” form, you… DROP THE (tu) (vous) Mange! Mangez! Danse! Dansez! Chante! Chantez!

8. ARE WE DONE YET??!! …heck no!

9. IRREGULARS! ÊTRE  AVOIR  Sois!Soyez! Aie!Ayez! Mini Miss Murlin wonders: “Where have I seen these before?!” (tu) (vous)

10. Let’s try some… (for the sake of our project, use “vous”) 1. sauter = 2. lire = 3. écrabouiller = 4. applaudir = 5. aller = Sautez! Lisez! Écrabouillez! Applaudissez! Allez! Magnifique classe!

11. LA FIN!
