"Wait!"

Translation: Warten Sie!

[klaus_walker]

So...I guess it's mandatory to have a pronoun when you give an order to someone?

[ellablun]

It's not .it's mandatory when warten is used. Look at the description with imperative lesson

[layla.sroor]

Shouldn't "Warte!" be accepted too?

[Tommy_SGB]

As far as I know it should be accepted. I've reported it.

[klaus_walker]

Eat! = Essen Sie! etc.?

[ikwilvertalen]

It's only mandatory when you're giving an order to someone who you address with "Sie". If you address someone with "du", or a group with "ihr", the pronoun is not required:

• "Iss!" (eat!, to someone you address with "du")
• "Esst!" (eat!, to a group you address with "ihr")

[layla.sroor]

Why isn't "Warte!" accepted then? shouldn't it be?
I am asking this to make sure before reporting it...

[Joanne254]

Is "warte mal" too different from just "wait"?

[yaaaahr]

so what would this be if it were singular familiar and plural familiar??

[Matt831766]

Singular imperative informal = Warte
Plural imperative informal = Wartet
