I'm learning about los mandatos and I learnt that there were some irregulares such as sal, ten, ve, haz.... does this apply for ud as well or only tú? If So, say I want to say you stop in usted form, do I just say para usted?

The "shorty" irregulars are in tú form only:

  • ten (tener) ¡Ten cuidado!
  • ven (Venir) ¡Ven aquí!
  • di (decir) ¡Dime lo que quieres!
  • se (Ser) ¡Se perfecta!
  • ve (Ir) ¡Vete ya!
  • sal (salir) ¡Sal y cierre la puerta!
  • pon (poner) ¡Pon la mesa!
  • haz (hacer) ¡Haz tu tarea!

Ud form uses its subjunctive form. It is irregular in its command if the verb is already irregular in the subjunctive.

Like hecho en mexico said, Salir is a good example. Salga would be the Ud. form of the subjunctive. It is irregular because the yo form in present indicative is "salgo" not "salo."

No. "Usted" is used with the same conjugated form as "él". In your example it is "pare usted".
