61 Subject with Imperative

Imperative Clauses are used when people tell someone to do something (an advice, a suggestion, a request, a command etc.).

Subject in the Imperative Clauses is always the same (You).

A noun or pronoun can be used to show who is the receiver. But the subject is always “you” in command sentences.

  • Be at destination point at 6.30 am. (You)
  • You! Follow the line immediately.
  • Soldiers! Hurry up! (You)

In Imperative Sentencesyou” is the subject all the time because Imperative Sentences always address someone or something. We can also use you as a subject to show emphatic anger and persuasion.
