2. Imperative verb: An imperative sentence typically begins with an infinitive form of a verb (omitting the "to") followed by the rest of the predicate.

3. Punctuation: Imperative sentences typically end with a period, but the sentence can end with an exclamation mark if the request is particularly urgent.
