Regular Negative Ud. Or Uds. Commands
The regular Negative Ud. commands are
formed by placing no in front of the affirmative Ud. command. The only difference is that with the negative command the direct, indirect and reflexive pronouns are placed before the command.
no hablarme
no me hable
Now form the negative Ud. commands for the following infinitives. Remember that if the verb is followed by a pronoun you need to place it appropriately.
irse
no se vaya
don’t go
Estar triste
¡No esté triste!
Don’t be sad!
nadar
¡No nade!
Don’t swim!

¡No se duerma!
Don’t fall asleep!
tener
¡No tenga!
Don’t have!

¡No lo haga!
Don’t do it!

Don’t drive!
afeitarse

To make a negative nosotros command.
let’s not eat
you have only one option:
No comamos.
You don’t have the “vamos a” option. You can’t say “no vamos a comer.” That doesn’t mean “let’s not eat.” It isn’t a command. It can mean only “we are not going to eat.”
And what do we do with pronouns when we have a negative command? Do we tack them on the end?
No!!!
That’s just for affirmative commands. You put the pronoun at the beginning of negative commands:
No lo comamos.No las busquemos.No nos sentemos.
How to ask somebody NOT to do something?
Tú
The negative informal (tú) commands are formed the following way:
hablar - ar + es = no hables!
comer - er + as = no comas!
escribir - ir + as = no escribas!
