How to Formulate Commands Effectively

Commands are expressions used to ask someone to do something. To give a command, use a verb and object followed by "please". Examples of properly formatted commands are "Open the door, please!" and "Keep silence, please!". Responses to commands should be agreeable like "Alright" or "Sure" or provide a reason for inability to comply like "Sorry, I can't".
