commands

· velelnik
-i or -j for 'you', + -te for the plural
The imperative (velelnik) gives commands and requests. For 'you' (singular) the ending is usually -i (govori! pridi! naredi!) or -j after a vowel (delaj! poslušaj!). For 'you' (plural / polite) add -te: govorite! poslušajte! And 'let's' (the dual/plural 'we') adds -mo / -va: gremo! (let's go). A few are irregular: pojdi! (go!), jej! (eat!), bodi! (be!).
Govori!Speak!-i ending
Poslušaj!Listen!-j after a vowel
Pridite!Come! (plural/polite)+ -te
