2 Types of Imperative Sentences

  1. Positive imperative sentences: These sentences use affirmative verbs to address the subject. For example, “Pick up some bread from the store.”

  2. Negative imperative sentences: These sentences tell the subject to not do something. They usually begin with the verb "don't" or the negative form of a verb. For example, “Don’t forget your luggage.”

3 Elements of Imperative Sentences

  1. Implied second person: An imperative sentence does not contain a subject. Instead, the subject of an imperative sentence is an implied second person—“you.”

  2. Imperative verb: An imperative sentence typically begins with an infinitive form of a verb (omitting the "to") followed by the rest of the predicate.

  3. Punctuation: Imperative sentences typically end with a period, but the sentence can end with an exclamation mark if the request is particularly urgent.
