	<jimregan2>	there is no imperative in English
	<spectie>	there kind of is
	<jimregan2>	not really
	<jacobn>	Look at the manual. Read the manual.
	<jimregan2>	there are hacky ways around it, but only in certain conditions
	<jacobn>	Thats imperatives
	<spectie>	well, it is formed with the bare infinitive
	<spectie>	http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperative_mood
	<jacobn>	is it possible to implement the "hacky ways" or copy them from another language?
	<spectie>	they don't work from english → spanish
	<spectie>	:/
	<jimregan2>	dunno yet
	<jimregan2>	no, copying from another language isn't an option, really
	<jimregan2>	I'll try to add them in en->fr
	<jimregan2>	that reuses the rules from en-es, so if I get a solution there, it should map cleanly enough to en-es and en-ca
	<jacobn>	Jim: So I will put imperative on "future tests" and wait (how long?) for you to get some experience on imperatives
	<jimregan2>	dunno
