This document discusses how to form affirmative commands in Spanish using tú forms. To make an affirmative command, take the tú form of the present tense verb and drop the -s. Some common verbs like poner, tener, and decir use the yo form instead. Verbs like hacer, ser, and ir have irregular tú command forms. Reflexive verbs take the reflexive pronoun as part of the command.
