The 'Let's' Form
In Spanish, to say 'Let's do something,' you use the 'nosotros' form of the special command verb form (the present subjunctive). For -AR verbs like 'hablar', the ending changes from 'a' to 'e'.
Negative Suggestions
To say 'Let's not talk,' you just put 'no' in front: 'No hablemos más de eso' (Let's not talk about that anymore).
Using the wrong verb form for 'Let's'
Mistake: “Using 'Vamos a hablar' instead of 'Hablemos'.”
Correction: While 'Vamos a hablar' means 'We are going to talk,' it is generally better to use the command form 'Hablemos' when making a direct suggestion ('Let's talk').
