To tell someone to do something you always use
an AFFIRMATIVE command aka positive
command. This is different from a negative
command which tells them NOT to do
something.
positive command = “drink the milk”,
negative command= “don’t drink the milk”
You use this with anyone you would address as
tú (sibling, friend, parent to child).
Usted commands are different.
A command tells someone to do something: Eat.
Drink.

something,
