Common Mistakes
Mistake: Using the infinitive after 'no'.
Correct: Use 'no perturbar' for commands to 'ustedes' or 'ustedes' (plural) and 'no perturbe' for 'usted'.
Why: The negative imperative requires the subjunctive mood, not the infinitive.
Mistake: Confusing with the present indicative negative.
Correct: Remember it's 'no perturbes' (subjunctive) for 'tú', not 'no perturbas' (indicative).
Why: The subjunctive is used for negative commands, while the indicative is for statements.
