About the 3rd Person Imperative - Generally
The Imperative Mood is used in issuing commands. It is formed by using the verb in its simplest, unconjugated form: Listen!..., Sit!..., Eat!....
The Imperative Mood in English occurs only in the second person, and the subject - you - is generally not expressly stated, because it is implied.
When the speaker gives a command regarding anyone else, it is still directed at the second person as though it were a request for permission, although it may be a rhetorical statement.
1. Let me do the talking.
2. Let us build a bridge.
3. Give him an allowance.
4. Let sleeping dogs lie.
Turkish is similar as it also uses the second person endings -sin/-sın/-sün/-sun and its plural forms -sinler/-sınlar/-sünler/-sunlar as a request for the third person imperative by attaching this suffix directly to the Verb stem (ie. there are no tense signs like -iyor- or -ar etc.. used)
baksın - let him look
bakmasın - let him not look
girsin - let him enter
girsinler - let them not enter |
