Command Forms – Today’s French

L’impératif en français – Le français d’aujourd’hui

Part of Level 2 | Command Forms

We hear commands all the time. Our parents, our teachers tell us what to do, and it doesn’t get much better during our adult life.

1. Eat your broccoli.
2. Finish your homework assignment.
3. Have this account closed by Thursday.

Today, we’ll go over a few sentences in the command form together. Listen, read and write with me.

Exercice – Practice

Translate the sentences from one column to another. From French to English (la version) is easier, from English to French (la thèse) a bit more challenging.
Traduisez les phrases d’une colonne à une autre. Du français en anglais (la version) est plus facile, de l’anglais au français (la thèse) un peu plus difficile.

Français

1. Levons-nous !
2. Parle-lui !
3. Retournez-vous !
4. Plaignons-nous en !

English
