Imperatives 

= gebiedende wijs

"Wel doen! Niet doen!

Kijk uit!	Watch out!
Drink veel water.	Drink plenty of water.
Open je boek op pagina 28.	Open your book one page 28.
Wacht even!	Wait!
Doe de deur dicht.	Close the door.

Wel doen!

What does it look like?/ the rule?

Niet te hard praten.	Don't talk too loud.
Verslaap je niet.	Don't oversleep.
Niet doen!	Don't do that!
Hier niet eten.	Don't eat here.
Verpest het niet.	Don't mess it up.

Niet doen!

What does it look like?/the rule?

Rule 

Hele werkwoord (zonder 'to') + de rest van de zin = imperative

Eat your breakfast!

Werkwoord vooraan in de zin + de rest van de zin

Bij ontkenning:

Don't play loud music.

Don't + hele werkwoord + rest van de zin

When do we use imperatives?

Met de 'gebiedende wijs' kan je aangeven wat iemand wel of niet moet doen.

- Bevel     Come here!

- Waarschuwing    Watch out!

- Advies    Drink plenty of water.

- Verzoek    Don't smoke here.

- Instructie    Open your book on page 20.
