L'imperativo
Definition
Used for commands and polite suggestions.
-are verbs:
tu: -a
Lei: -i
noi: -iamo
voi: -ate

-ere verbs:
tu: -i
Lei: -a
noi: -iamo
voi: -ete

-ire, and -isc verbs
tu: -i
Lei: -a
noi: -iamo
voi: -ite

TU NEGATIVE:
non + infinitive.

Reflexice, direct, indirect, and double-object pronouns (and ci and ne) follow and attach to the tu, noi and voi forms of the imperative. Pronouns always precede the polite form Lei.

When a pronoun attaches to a one-syllable tu form of the imperative (da', fa', va', etc.), the apostrophe is dropped and the first consonant of the pronoun is doubled, except in the case of gli.
