a. Imperative sentences
imperative sentence is a sentence that
expresses instructions, warning, command,
request, or invitation. There are two main
categories: positive and negative imperative
sentences.
In positive imperative, we use the base verb.
Example: “Collect the organic rubbish!”
It means we want someone to collect the
rubbish.
The negative imperative sentences tell someone
not to do something. Example: “Do not forget to
wash your hands!”
It means we want someone to not forget to
wash their hands.
