What does "hagas" mean?

Question

I'm not exactly sure what "No hagas drogas" means. I know it's something about drugs, but I don't know what hagas means. I need to put "hagas" in the infinitive form, but I don't know what it is.

Answer 1

Note that 'hagas' is the negative (dont do...) form of the command do. There is also a positive (do...) form that looks a little different in the form 'haz'

haz

no hagas

Both of these forms are the familiar tú form of the command.

As in "Hazme un favor" Do me a favor and " no me hagas un favor" Do not do me a favor

A bit of a continuation on your question, but as you move forward this may be something you come across.

Answer 2

"No hagas drogas" is a literal translation from English, which a lot of natives who don't speak good English will understand as "Don't manufacture drugs". In Spanish we say "No tomes drogas". Don't learn this kind of Spanglish.

Answer 3

"You should not do drugs because it's a bad habit, I would say "No debes hacer drogas porque es un habito"

Not quite. "porque es un habito" means it is a habit/custom but does not imply that it is a bad one (as would "addiction"/"adicción)".

Answer 4

Hagas basicly means do

Answer 5

Hagas means dont do it.

Answer 6

It means don't do drugs. Hagas = do

Hagas come from the word hacer.

Hagas is the subjunctive conjugation for "you do." - hithere3387, Jan 12, 2010

So if I need to say "You should not do drugs because it's a bad habit, I would say "No debes hacer drogas porque es un habito" ? - lyndseeee, Jan 12, 2010

Which is what you use to form the negative informal command (the 2nd person, sing. present subjunctive) - 0074b507, Jan 12, 2010
