Formal, informal, singular or plural? - Stadt, Dec 15, 2011
in the vosotros form, both positive and negative - richardl, Dec 15, 2011
I will have to defer that to someone else, I have not studied vosotros commands, and Farallon gave you usted, ustedes and tú, all positive. - Stadt, Dec 15, 2011

Thank you, Quentin, it is one of the few areas that I have not studied at all. :-) - Stadt, Dec 15, 2011
It is good to know it, but you would probably never use it. Unless you go to Spain, some places in Colombia, Argentina or Costa Rica. They use a little bit of that conjugation form. - farallon7, Dec 16, 2011

The best way for you to look this up is to go to the verb conjugation function under "More" section at the top of this page.

Joyce:

The flaw there is that the dictionary only occasionally includes the conjugation of the pronominal form. I only found divertir conjugated; not divertirse (which my pocket book of verbs includes)

So if you do not understand the rules about dropping the "d" when attaching the os reflexive pronoun or remember to check if an accent mark will be required, looking it up in the dictionary will not get you to the correct answer.

Also notice that the negative commands are not shown (which my pocket book of verbs also shows).

Nor do they give you the negatives. :-) - Stadt, Dec 15, 2011

There, you can conjugate every verb. The imperative form is at the end.

Best wishes!
