Imperatives

• For a definition of Imperatives see Imperative Mood (definition).

The imperative paradigm for the verb 'to put' is as follows:

cuirim	let me put	cuireamaid	let us put
cuir (thusa)	you put	cuiribh	let you (pl) put
cuireadh (esan/ise)'	let him put	cuireadh (iadsan)	let them put

Even though there are imperative forms for all different person and number features on the verb, the youth tend to only use the second person singular and plural.

siuthad go on siuthadaibh go on (plural)
