Where to put pronouns in affirmative and negative Ud. and Uds. commands?

Ex: Dormirselo... Ud. affirmative command? - duermatelo or Lo te duerma? Ud negative command? - duermantelo or Lo te duerman?

In affirmative commands, the object pronouns are attached to the conjugated imperative command. A stress mark is added to the verb to sanctify the integrity of the word. For example: Using hacer. (to make/to do). If you were to say "do it!" ( ¡Haga + lo !) would become: (¡Hágalo!)

In negative commands...the object pronoun is detached and placed before the negative command (imperative) thus; ¡No lo haga! Hope this helps, Viejito
