Imperatives and Aspect in Russian

Imperative (or command) forms are useful for invitations, as well as advice, orders, or warnings – any time you need to tell someone to do something (or not to do something).

When you use an imperative, you'll need to choose an aspect: imperfective or perfective? In this video we'll cover all the basic contexts so you'll know whether to say читай or прочитай, скажи or говори, пишите or напишите.
