verb + noun, adjective…

the washing machine
- If we want to include
ourselves in the

“let’s".

- Definition and
grammar:
- Is used to give
orders, instructions
or warnings.
- The structure of imperative
sentences is different
because we do not use a
subject; it is assumed that
the subject is always “you”.
- Therefore, the verb
is always in the
infinitive form.
