How to give more restrictive negative commands?
We know how to give simple negative commands, for example "Don't smoke" translates to "No fumes". But what happens when you want to give more restrictive commands such as "Never smoke" or "Never smoke again"? Do the adverbs "nunca" or "nunca más" affect the verb conjugation (fumes)?

In this case no. I cannot think of anything else this morning... :/
No fumes.
No fumes nunca (en este recinto)
No fumes nunca más (en tu vida/en este recinto)
OK, In English and in Spanish depends of context.
As already told:
Nunca = never
Nunca más = never again
Now consider this:
Don't smoke
Never smoke
Don't you ever smoke (in your life/this place) (again)
