Foghlaim
Please listen to sound files as mentioned above. 
This lesson is very important.  We are dealing with the imperative of the verb.  Commanding somebody (one person) to do something. This verb is also the root/stem and this is what you look up in the dictionary.

Some of the 30 verbs we have encountered already.

In order to tell somebody not to do something just put Ná in front of the sentence

Seas suas  = stand up
Ná seas suas = do not stand up

If the verb following ná starts with a vowel, a h is prefixed to it.
Ná hól an bainne = Do not drink the milk.
Ná habair é.  Don’t mention it.
You can test yourself my doing the crossword
