The imperative is a defective paradigm, lacking all dual forms; it is formed from the bare root, so it is formed in the same way for all verbs. Unlike all other terminations, there are separate agentive and patientive ones (note that agentive ones begin with '''-ь''' and not ''-y''.


Note that, due to the politeness system of Chlouvānem, the imperative is somewhat rare, as other methods are used. The first person imperative is an exception, being often used with the meaning “I/we must”.

====Agent imperative====
As the bare imperative is patientive, apart from the normal agentive form (e.g. ''nāmvikṣaça!'' "crush!"), there is a "reduced" agentive form, invariable for person. This is formed starting from the infinitive and adding the following endings (actually the conjugation of an older verb from Proto-Lahob *kij- "to result, to end up being"):
* '''-i̯yė''' for normal exterior (''nāmvakeiyė!'' "crush!")
* '''-i̯re''' for normal interior (''dældakeire!'' "speak!")
* '''-i̯xhāt''' for causative exterior (''nāmvakeixhāt!'' "make it crush!")
* '''-i̯raxhāt''' for causative interior (''mišakeiraxhāt!'' "learn!")
The causative forms are sometimes found with ''-yixhāt'' and ''-yiraxhāt'' (e.g. ''nāmvakeyixhāt'', ''mišakeyiraxhāt'') in very old preclassical texts.
