Impersonal Se

Hello! Today we will learn about the Impersonal Se. A lot of times, spanish grammar is easier to understand when you are able to understand how it is used in english grammar. Impersonal in english is used when making a general statement without being too specific. For ex: You should be kind to children. As illustrated, the impersonal is used with an impersonal pronoun which can be: you, they, someone, people, anyone, one, and etc.
Spanish is the same way, it is used when making general statements with unspecified grammatical subjects. For ex: Se tiene los libros en la biblioteca. (They have books at the library) When forming the impersonal use the following steps:
1.Conjugate the verb into third person singular
2.Place the impersonal se directly before the verb
3.Form the rest of the sentence
EX: beber – bebe – se bebe  comer – come – se come
That's All!

Negative Tú Commands

Negative Tú Commands are used to tell people what NOT to do.

When using negative tú commands, conjugate the verb into the yo form.
Then drop the -o, and add the appropriate ending.

For -AR verbs add ES to the end
For -ER/IR verbs, add AS to the end.

And lastly, arguably the most important step is to add the "NO" before the verb.

Very confusing..I know.
But it's really not that hard when you break it down! So stay with me,

Here are some examples....

The verb in the YO form Negative tú command
Leer No Leas (Don't Read)
Cantar No Cantes (Don't Sing)

Easy enough?
Now for the slightly hard part.

-GAR ------>G changes to GU
-ZAR ------> Z changes to C

Ex: Jugar changes to No jugues

Ex: Cruzar changes to No cruces
