  • For information on the formation of the Imperative Mood in Gaelic see Imperatives

The imperative mood is used to express a command. For example "go!"'. Usually they have an implied 2nd person singular implied subject, although we also find first person imperatives in English using let. "Let us go now!".

Gaelic imperatives can be 2nd person singular (Sguir! "stop") but can also appear in the 2nd person plural (XXXX) and 1st person (YYYY). See Imperatives for more details.
