How do we use the French imperative?
The imperative occupies a very special place compared to other modes: it has its proper synthax.
It expresses an order in different aspects such as a wish, prayer ... and in negative form, defense.
It borrows from indicative and subjunctive.
It can only be used in a 2nd person singular and plural, and 1st person plural:
Speak / Talk / Talk
It also only has two forms:
Present and past / active and passive
Simple form: Ex: Learn French!
Form composed: Ex: (You must) Have learned this lesson before Saturday.
