Don't forget the tilde over the "u": apúrate - Azabache, Aug 12, 2012

En el voseo, omitir el acento sobre la "u" está bien: vos apurate. - Cristianjames, Aug 12, 2012
A tilde (˜) over an n is (ñ). A tilde (˜) over a vowel (ā) is used to indicate nasality in a word. A stress mark (‘) is placed over a vowel to express crecendo…i.e. stress. (apúrate). - viejito, Aug 12, 2012
In latin, central, and south American Spanish a stress mark is placed over a vowel (to sanctify the words crecendo) whenever a pronoun is attached. Normally, the crecendo on “apura” would be the next to last syllable. - viejito, Aug 12, 2012
Spanish is a very romantic language, and its rhythm...flow...is always protected. - viejito, Aug 12, 2012

He aquí varias formas de decir la frase en cuestión. Sentíos libres de utilizar la que más os guste, dependiendo del contexto.
(apurarse) -- ¡Apúrate! (tú)
(darse prisa) ¡Date prisa! (tú)
¡Rápido!
(correr) ¡Corre! (tú)
Espero haberos servido, y si tenéis alguna duda, hacédmela saber.
