You're speaking to your "adult" neighbor: Have a good day, Anna.
You're speaking to your best friend's parents: Have fun at dinner.
You're speaking to your aunts and uncles: Sit down, make yourselves comfortable.

Observe these examples of "mandatos con usted y ustedes":
Sra. Roma, hable con el profesor ahora.
Apague usted las luces, por favor,
Doctor, póngale la inyección a la paciente en el cuarto B.
Sr. García, vaya a la biblioteca a las siete.
16
Are there any assumptions you can make regarding the formation of usted and ustedes commands?
17
The usted and ustedes commands, like the negative tú commands, are formed by
dropping the "o" in the yo form
and adding opposite usted and ustedes endings.
For -ar verbs, add -e or -en
For -er and -ir verbs, add -a or -an
18
The YO form is the key to success!
Conjugating the verb correctly in the "yo" form is the most necessary step!
