Imperative Tú Irregular — Spanish Verb Conjugation
Since the “tú” negative commands are the same as the Ud. and Uds. commands, they have the same irregulars. Let’s take a look at the irregulars for the “Tú” positive commands. There are 2 sets of irregulars. In this first set, even though the negatives are the same as you’ve already learned, we’ll include them anyway. The more exposure you get to them, the better you’ll remember them.
