Hola. In this video lesson, we’ll be talking about negative tú commands. I would love to tell you that these are just like affirmative tú commands except for with a no before. But I would be lying.

Thank you so much for all these videos! I’ve watched them while learning Spanish for the past two years and they are very helpful and also so funny and enjoyable to watch.
I have nothing bad to say about any of your lessons and I think they’re wonderful! I’m in 6th grade taking an online spanish class and I’m a gringo just like you so not only are you helping me, but you har giving me inspiration as well! â¤
Hola Señor Jordan! I love the infographics you have on the conman blogs. I’m a high school Spanish 1-3 teacher and commands decor is something I do not have. My students say it’s the one thing I’m missing. I would love to have these infographics made into poster from a local print shop or Staples, but I’m unsure about the copyright and/or proof of permission to use for educational purposes. Any help?! Gracias antemano!
I’m taking Spanish 3E right now and these commands videos really helped
