When to Use the Negative Imperative

Use the negative imperative to tell someone NOT to do something. For 'reanudar', it means 'don't resume'. For example, 'No reanudes la discusión' (Don't resume the discussion).

Notes on reanudar in the Negative Imperative

Reanudar is regular in the negative imperative, which is formed using the present subjunctive. The nosotros form 'no reanudemos' is the same as the present subjunctive 'nosotros' form.

Common Mistakes

  • Mistake: Using the infinitive with 'no' for a command.

    Correct: Use the negative imperative (present subjunctive), e.g., 'No reanudes' instead of 'No reanudar'.

    Why: The infinitive is not used for commands, even negative ones.

  • Mistake: Confusing 'no reanudemos' (let's not resume) with 'no reanudemos' (you all don't resume).

    Correct: These are the same form. Context will clarify if it's a suggestion for 'us' or a command for 'you all'.

    Why: The nosotros negative imperative and ustedes negative imperative are identical.
