46. The impératif continued • The nous and vous command forms of –er verbs are the same as the present tense forms. For –ir verbs, -re verbs, and most irregular verbs, all the command forms are identical to the present tense forms, without the subject pronouns.

47. The impératif continued • The impératif forms of avoir and être are irregular avoir être (tu) aie sois (nous) ayons soyons (vous) ayez soyez
