Like Hindi saying the verb itself is giving command in Marathi. While giving command to many people or to a person with respect; verb is suffixed withआ ( A).
Examples will explain it better.
ये पढ ( ye paDh )
हे वाच ( he vAch )
ये पढो/ पढिये ( ye paDho/ paDhiye )
हे वाचा ( he vAchA )
उसे कहानी बता ( use kahAnI batA )
त्याला गोष्ट सांग ( tyAlA goShT sAMg )
उसे कहानी बताओ / बतायिये ( use kahAnI batAo / batAyiye )
त्याला गोष्ट सांगा ( tyAlA goShT sAMgA )
Verbs ending with आ ( A) remain as it is when giving commands with respect
आप खाइये (Ap khAiye)
तुम्ही खा ( tumhI khA )
आप जाओ (Ap jAo )
तुम्ही जा ( tumhI jA )
Some verbs which are not ending with “अ”(a); suffixing “आ (A) will create bit different form. See below examples of दे(de), पी (pI)
पानी पी ( pAnI pI )
पाणी पी ( pANI pI )
पानी पीयो / पीजिये ( pAnI pIyo / pIjiye )
पाणी प्या ( pANI pyA )
मुझे चाय दे ( mujhe chAy de )
मला चहा दे ( malA chahA de )
मुझे चाय दो / दीजिये ( mujhe chAy do / dIjiye )
मला चहा द्या ( malA chahA dyA )
Negative Commands :-
To create a negative command form is :- Verb+ऊ नकोस ( +U nakos )
To give command someone with respect or case of plural of you form is :- Verb+ऊ नका (+U nakA )
मत पढ ( mat paDh )
वाचू नकोस ( vAchU nakos )
मत पढो/ पढिये ( mat paDho/ paDhiye )
हे वाचू नका ( he vAchU nakA )
उसे कहानी मत बता ( use kahAnI mat batA )
त्याला गोष्ट सांगू नकोस ( tyAlA goShT sAMgU nakos )
उसे कहानी मत बताओ / बतायिये ( use kahAnI mat batAo / batAyiye )
त्याला गोष्ट सांगू नका ( tyAlA goShT sAMgU nakA )
पानी मत पी ( pAnI mat pI )
पाणी पीऊ नकोस ( pANI pIU nakos )
पानी मत पीयो / पीजिये ( pAnI mat pIyo / pIjiye )
पाणी पीऊ नका ( pANI pIU nakA )
मुझे चाय मत दे ( mujhe chAy mat de )
मला चहा देऊ नकोस ( malA chahA deU nakos )
मुझे चाय मत दो / दीजिये ( mujhe chAy mat do / dIjiye )
मला चहा देऊ नका ( malA chahA deU nakA )

Giving commands very formally.
In a public function or formal program, the host of the program says "May I request you to to come on the stage", "May you please inaugurate the project".
Or on the government forms or other formal applications we find instructions. "Write your name here","Sign here" etc.
These are the cases of giving instructions very formally.
It is discussed in separate lesson

jaaNe and hoNe does not end in 'a' so what will be its imperative form with 'tumhi' ????
ReplyDeleteverbs ending with "A" have no change. They remain as it is. e.g.
Delete"jANe" -> "jA"
"khANe" -> "khA"
For other special verb u asked
"hoNe" -> vhA
