Presentation transcript:

Der Imperativ. The imperative is used for commands, requests and instructions. Anna, komm herein! (du = you, singular) Anna, come in! Jane und Bob, kommt herein! (ihr = you, plural) Jane and Bob, come in! Oma Anke, kommen Sie herein! (Sie = you, singular & plural, polite) Grandma Anke, come in!

When you give a command etc, you will either be talking to one person or a group of people. For this reason, you will need to use the corresponding form of the verb for either: du (you, singular, familiar {familiar}) ihr (you, plural, familiar {familiar}) Sie (you, singular or plural polite)

If you finish quickly, reread the passage again...and again...If you finish quickly, reread the passage again...and again...

Rules for using the imperative: Sie = you, singular & plural, polite Sie is simply back to front Sie parken. {You are parking.} Parken Sie! {Park!} Sie rauchen nicht. {You are not smoking.} Rauchen Sie nicht! {Dont smoke!}

ihr = you, plural, familiar ihr just drops the pronoun (the ihr) Ihr parkt. {You are parking.} Parkt! {Park!} Ihr raucht nicht. {You are not smoking.} Raucht nicht! {Dont smoke!}

du = you, singular, familiar du is trickier. For regular verbs it just looks like the stem of the infinitive parken {to park} park! {Park!} rauchen {to smoke} rauch (nicht)! {(Dont) smoke!} If the verb is irregular (not sure? Check a dictionary.) you keep the vowel change but drop the st ending: essen = to eat du isst = you are eating iss! = eat! sprechen = to speak du sprichst = you are speaking sprich! = speak! REMEMBER – all irregular verbs are listed in dictionaries.

du (irregular verbs continued) But, if the stem change in the verb adds an umlaut, this is not used in the imperative form fahren = to drive du fährst = you are driving fahr! = drive! sein (to be) is different (as always!) so just memorise it! du = sei still! (Be still!) ihr = seid still! (Be still!) Sie = Seien Sie still! (Be still!)

Complete the exercise on your imperatives handout: Make imperatives out of the phrases given below. The verb to use is shown in brackets. Give all 3 forms for each one – the du, the ihr and the Sie. ALSO! Translate each imperative phrase (follow this example): 1. Platz (nehmen) (du) Nimm Platz! (ihr)Nehmt Platz! (Sie) Nehmen Sie Platz! (English) Take a seat! Set your answers out in your book like this please.
