MANDATOS
Commands in the Ud./Uds. Form
Both affirmative and negative
LOS REGULARES
Similar to the Informal (tú) commands,
we’ll start with the present tense.
Formal (Ud.) commands:
Use the present tense “Yo” form and
change the ending.
Present “Yo” form
Present tense Yo form and change the “o” to
the “opposite vowel of the infinitive”
-ar  e
-er  a
-ir  a
Infinitive
Cortar
Comer
Vivir
 Present  Ud Command
 Corto
 Corte!
 Como  Coma!
 Vivo
 Viva!
*What does this remind you of?
*Ud. Commands are conjugated just like
negative tú, but drop the ‘s’!!
As with the Tú commands, whatever
changes are in the present tense
(boots) must stay in the
Command/Mandato.
pensar  piensa  piense!
dormir  duerme  duerma!
Pretend irregulares
This is where the “yo” form will come in useful.
**Changes in the Yo form (yo-go, c-zc,
g-j) MUST stay.
(notice the opposite vowel still in effect)
Hacer
Seguir
Conocer
Recoger
 hago
 haga!
 sigo
 siga!
 conozco  conozca!
 recojo  recoja!
Pretend irregulares
Other yo-go ------ go ga!

Decir  diga!
Seguir  siga!
Tener
Poner
Oír
Salir
Conseguir
 tenga!

Sound/spelling ‘irregulares’
Recuerde! The sounds of some verbs
become an issue and letters change….
jugar  juega  juege?  juegue!
tocar  toca  toce?  toque!
empezarempiezaempieze?empiece!
*notice the boot change in effect.
COMPLETAMENTE IRREGULAR
Saber  sepa
Ser  sea
Ir
 vaya
Haber  haya
Ver  vea
Dar  dé
Estar  esté
Making Ud.  Uds.
Simply take the Usted form of the
command and add an “n” to make it
plural, just as you would a normal
present tense verb.
Presente
-----|---------|----Come| Comen
Mandato
Ud.  Uds.
Coma! Coman!
Making Affirmative  Negative
Unlike like the Tú commands,
Ud/Uds commands can become
negative by simply adding a “no”
before the command.
Affirmativo
¡Abra!
Negativo
¡No abra!
