are the others right?
Put it on requires the reflexive verb AND the "it" = póntelo
negative = no te lo pongas
Come here usually means "right on this spot" = ven acá
negative = no vengas aquí
go = similar to "get yourself gone" = vete (is commonly what you will here)

To form affirmative "tu" commands in Spanish, you generally use the third-person singular form of the verb. For example:
1. Put it on! = ¡Ponlo! (using the third-person singular form of "poner")
Explanation: To form this command, take the verb "poner" (to put) and conjugate it in the third-person singular form, which is "pone." Then add the direct object pronoun "lo" (meaning "it") to show what you want to be put on. So, "ponlo" means "put it on."
Alternatively, you can use the reflexive form of the verb "ponerse" (to put on oneself) and say:
Put it on! = ¡Póntelo! (using the reflexive form "ponerte" + the direct object pronoun "lo")
Explanation: In this case, "ponte" is the reflexive command form of "ponerse" (to put on oneself), and "lo" represents the direct object pronoun "it." So, "póntelo" also means "put it on."
2. Put it on (negative)! = ¡No te pongas!
Explanation: To form the negative command, you start with the reflexive pronoun "te" to indicate that the action is to be done to oneself. Then you use the reflexive form of the verb "ponerse" (to put on oneself) in the present tense, followed by "no." So, "no te pongas" means "don't put it on."
3. Come here! = ¡Ven aquí!
Explanation: To form the command to someone to come, you use the verb "venir" (to come) in the "tu" form, which is "ven." Then add "aquí" (meaning "here") to specify where you want the person to come. So, "ven aquí" means "come here."
4. Come here (negative)! = ¡No te vengas aquí!
Explanation: To form the negative command, you start with the reflexive pronoun "te" to indicate that the action is to be done to oneself. Then, you use the reflexive form of the verb "venirse" (to come) in the present tense. Finally, you add "aquí" to specify where you don't want the person to come. So, "no te vengas aquí" means "don't come here."
5. Go! = ¡Ve!
Explanation: To form the command to someone to go, use the verb "ir" (to go) in the "tu" form, which is "ve." So, "ve" means "go."
Note: In some cases, the imperative forms of verbs may have irregularities, so it's essential to check verb conjugation charts or specific verb forms to ensure accuracy.
