Imperative Guide
The imperative mood in English is generally used to give an order, to prompt someone
to do something, to give a warning or to give instructions.
El modo imperativo en inglés se usa generalmente para dar una orden, para incitar a
alguien a hacer algo, para dar una advertencia o para dar instrucciones.
If you have two (2) or more verbs in a sentence you may separate them using “TO”:
Go to work! ¡Ve a trabajar!
Come to start to work! ¡Ven para que comiences a trabajar!
“To” puede tomar diferentes significados (que, para, a, o simplemente una conexión entre
los verbos).

Object pronouns
Object pronouns work as a complement and indicates the patient who receives the action:
English Spanish
Me A mí
You A usted
Us A nosotros(as)
Him A él
Her A ella
It A esto
Them A ellos(as)
Object personal pronouns always come after the verb in a sentence instead of a noun.
Let's see an example: In the phrase "Kiss Laura" (Kiss Laura) using an object pronoun we
would simply say "Kiss her".
You may normally add the object pronoun directly to the verb:
Kiss her!
Hug me!
Stop them!
Help us!
Except in the case that the verb requires some preposition:
Listen to me!
Look at him!
Talk with them!
