The tú command: the él form, or one of the eight short ones. Choose the command, not the present.
Uno, dos, tres: ¡habla, y escribe!
one, two, three: talk, eat and write!
Or listen and type: hear a line, write the missing words.
Learn the Spanish tú command (the imperative) in one song. Regular verbs use the él form without él: él habla → ¡habla!, él come → ¡come!, él escribe → ¡escribe! Then the eight short irregulars: ven (venir), di (decir), sal (salir), haz (hacer), ten (tener), ve (ir), pon (poner) and sé (ser).
