Imperativo informale con pronomi

Informal imperative with pronouns
The pronouns and the particles ci and ne are joined together, as a suffix, to the informal imperative.
For example:
"Guardami" → Look at me
"Spegnila" → Turn it off


With the irregular verbs dire, andare, fare, dare and stare, the pronouns and the particles ci and ne double the initial consonant, except for the pronoun gli.
For example:
"Dimmi" → Tell me
"Dacci una mano" → Give us a hand
"Mostragli il vestito" → Show him the dress


With the negative form of the informal imperative, we have two possibilities:
  • the pronoun or the particle ci or ne is joined into the imperative as a suffix
  • the pronoun or the particle ci or ne precedes the imperative
For example:
"Se non ti piace non mangiarlo" / "Se non ti piace non lo mangiare"
"Non dirmi niente" / "Non mi dire niente"
