IMPERATIVE SENTENCES

​SMP MIFTAHUL ULUM BOARDING SCHOOL JOGOLOYO

​OBJECTIVE :

Students are able to identify kinds of expression to command and respond them accuretly after practicing some dialogs.

​Untuk membentuk kalimat imperatif, kita gunakan kata kerja (verb 1) bentuk pertama (present) juga di sebut infinitive tanpa to.

Contoh:

-  Open the door!

-  Peel the apple!

-  Wash the vegetables!

-  Pour the water!

-  Type the message!

-  Listen to me!

Kata yang dicetak tebal adalah kata kerja yang digunakan untuk membuat kalimat perintah.

Untuk memperhalus perintah kita dapat menggunakan kata “please” sehingga kalimat ini disebut  Request atau permintaan/permohonan. Contoh: Close the windows, please. Please clean the class room!

There are two ​kinds of imperative sentences :

​1. Command

​example :

Open the windows, please!

​Put the sugar and the coffee into the cup!

​

​Catatan:

Kalimat perintah yang diikuti kata sifat atau kata benda diawali –to be

Contoh:

Be careful!

Be brave!

Be a good boy!

​2. Prohibition (Larangan)

Untuk membentuk kalimat larangan biasanya kita dapat menambahkan kata “do not” atau don’t, atau no. 

​Contoh:

- Do not eat before it is warm.

- Do not log out your account!

- Stop smoking/No smoking!

​Untuk membentuk kalimat larangan yang diikuti kata sifat(adjective) atau kata benda (noun) ditambahkan –be/to be.

Contoh: Don’t be shy!, Do not be late!
