Thank you.
To find the correct informal command for each verb, you need to understand the formation of informal command forms in Spanish. Informal commands are often used when giving directions, making requests, or giving orders to someone you have a close relationship with, like a family member or a friend.
To form the informal command, you generally take the present tense form of the verb and make a few changes. Here are the general rules:
- For regular verbs ending in -ar, like "ayudar" (to help), you drop the -ar and add -a for tu commands. So "ayudar" becomes "ayuda" for the command "help".
- For regular verbs ending in -er and -ir, like "beber" (to drink), you drop the -er or -ir and add -e for tu commands. So "beber" becomes "bebe" for the command "drink".
- For irregular verbs, like "venir" (to come), "decir" (to say), and "tener" (to have), you need to memorize their specific command forms.
Now, let's go through each question and find the correct informal command form:
1) The correct informal command for "ayudar" (to help) is C. Ayuda. (You drop the -ar and add -a for tu commands)
2) The correct informal command for "beber" (to drink) is A. bebas. (You drop the -er and add -as for tu commands)
3) The correct informal command for "abrir" (to open) is C. Abre. (You drop the -ir and add -e for tu commands)
4) The correct informal command for "llorar" (to cry) is D. llores. (This is an irregular verb, so you need to memorize its specific command form)
5) The correct informal command for "venir" (to come) is E. ven. (This is an irregular verb, so you need to memorize its specific command form)
6) The correct informal command for "cocinar" (to cook) is C. Cocina. (You drop the -ar and add -a for tu commands)
7) The correct informal command for "jugar" (to play) is D. juega. (You drop the -ar and add -a for tu commands)
8) The correct informal command for "patinar" (to skate) is D. patines. (This is an irregular verb, so you need to memorize its specific command form)
9) The correct informal command for "decir" (to say) is D. di. (This is an irregular verb, so you need to memorize its specific command form)
10) The correct informal command for "correr" (to run) is E. corras. (This is an irregular verb, so you need to memorize its specific command form)
By following the rules I explained and memorizing the irregular forms, you can find the correct informal command form for each verb.
