#:: ''Do not eat the grass!'' | |||
In imperative verb phrases, the ''imperative indicator'', ''duà'', is put before the verb, as ''ché'' is still considered, at least grammatically, part of the verb when present. Additionally, verbs take on their '''root''' form, as opposed to their infinitive form in said sentence type. | |||
In this sentence, ''[[Contionary:sö|sö]]géd'' is the object, and the verb is ''[[Contionary:dáfhéromh|dáfhér]]''. The subject does not appear and is instead implied to be the recipient of the imperative phrase. | |||
