Study this grammar rule:

Imperatives are commands or requests. You use the base form of the verb to tell someone to do something. Affirmative Form: To give a command, just use the verb. For example: - "Sit down." - "Please help me." Negative Form: To tell someone not to do something, use "do not (don't)" before the verb. For example: - "Don't run." - "Don't touch that." Conditions: 1. The subject is usually understood as "you," so you don't need to say it. 2. Use the base form of the verb (the verb without "to"). 3. For negative imperatives, always use "don't" + base form of the verb.
