Simon say never stop dreaming

supercalifragilisticoespialidoso Expresión popularizada por la película Mary Poppins (1964) que parece usarse para indicar que todo puede ir más que bien.

Etimología

Se dice que la palabra en inglés (supercalifragilisticexpialidocious) ya la usó Helen Herman en 1931 con un sentido de grande, genial, glorioso, espléndido, superior, maravilloso. También se dice que las distintas partes se deben interpretar de la siguiente manera: super- ‘encima’, -cali- ‘belleza’, -fragilistico- ‘delicado’, -expiali- ‘expiar, purificarse al cumplir una pena’ y -doso, a partir de -docious ‘educable’, lo que todo junto significaría algo como ‘expiación por la belleza extrema y delicada al ser altamente educable’.

Imperative verbs are verbs that tell someone to do something. They are usually placed at the beginning of sentences used to give orders. This class of verbs creates imperative sentences, which are the sentences that indicate orders, requests, wishes or mandates.

Tips:
1-tell me if you have any problem
Orders:
1-Cut the vegetables for the soup
Wishes:
1-I would like you to share that with me

The imperative is one of the ways in which Spanish verbs are conjugated, used exclusively to give orders, requests, prayers or requests of any kind, that is, to make the recipient act in some desired way:
1 Go slower I sprained an ankle.
2 “Pray for me,” the Pope said.
3 Let’s buy some sodas for dinner.
4 Stop jumping.
5 Write what I am going to dictate.
6 Don’t think badly of me.
7 Let’s buy a present for the children here.
8 Try the drinks at that bar.

In the video he talks about superlative verbs, they are used to give orders using the verb “go to” which is imperative, imperatives can be used to give advice such as: go tomorrow, an example of superlatives would be giving orders such as: no do that etc.

some sentences in superlatives would be:

-Go to the square and buy me some fruits
-Tomorrow is Thursday and you have to come in your daily uniform.
-Thursday I want you to be home early

"Supercalifragilisticoespialidoso" (en inglés, *supercalifragilisticexpialidocious*) es una palabra inventada que se hizo famosa gracias a la película *Mary Poppins* de Disney (1964). No tiene un significado real, pero en la película se usa para expresar algo increíblemente fantástico o maravilloso, especialmente cuando no encuentras otra palabra para describirlo. En la canción de la película, dicen que es "una palabra que puedes decir cuando no sabes qué decir". 🎶jeje
Come here! Sit down! Don´t go! Look out! Close the door, please. Switch the TV off. Put the flour, milk and eggs in a bowl. Take a selfie and post it on Twitter.
