1 answer

Usted Commands are formal commands used to address someone with respect or in a professional setting. Tú Commands are informal commands used with friends, family, or people you are close to.

Usted Commands are formed by conjugating the verb in the present tense to its yo form, then removing the -o ending and adding the appropriate ending depending on the verb type (-e for -ar verbs, and -a for -er and -ir verbs). Tú Commands are formed by dropping the final -o from the present tense yo form and adding the appropriate ending (-a for -ar verbs, and -e for -er and -ir verbs).

These commands are used differently in different contexts depending on the relationship between the speaker and the listener. Usted Commands are used when addressing someone formally or in a professional setting, while Tú Commands are used when addressing someone informally or in a familiar setting.
