Imperative clauses (Be quiet!)

de English Grammar Today

We use imperative clauses when we want to tell someone to do something (most

commonly for advice, suggestions, requests, commands, orders or instructions).

We can use them to tell people to do or not to do things. They usually don’t have a
subject – they are addressed to the listener or listeners, who the speaker
understands to be the subject. We use the base form of the verb:

Have fun.

Enjoy your meal.

Stop talking and open your books.

Don’t be late. FOR NEGATIVES.

Grammar Notes

Point 1: Sequence adverbs often come at the start of a sentence or clause and act
as a marker as to order.

 First, heat the pan.

 After that, you press the delete key.
 Then you can make your correction.

Point 2: However, some sequence adverbs like 'first' and 'next' can come at the
end of a sentence or clause.

Point 3: 'Next', 'then' and 'after that' are interchangeable. They mark something
between the start and finish.

 First, go down Cane Street.

After that turn left onto Oak.
 First, get behind a rock.
Then you can push the detonator.

Point 4: We often use sequence markers when giving instructions on how to do

something, make something or go somewhere.
