In this video you will learn the Nosotros commands in Spanish which in English would be Let's do something.

Commands give orders. The Nosotros/as commands are easy as there is just one verb with a distinct positive and distinct negative form. The verb is ir/irse, it is the verb to go (ir) or its reflexive form to leave (irse)
ir
+vamos
-No vayamos
(Let's go, Let's not go)
irse
+vámonos
-No nos vayamos
(Let's leave, Let's not leave)
All positive nosotros/as commands will drop the "s" of their original verb form whenever you attach a nos or a se to it.
You can see that in irse (vámonos)

To form the nosotros/as commands follow these rules whether they are positive or negative.
(+/_) ar=emos
(+/-) er/ir=amos

comer
+comamos
-No comamos
(Let's eat, Let's not eat)

dibujar
+dibujemos
-No dibujemos
(Let's draw, Let's not draw)

escribir
+escribamos
-No escribamos
(Let's write, Let's not write)

The same spelling changes applied in the subjunctive also apply in the nosotros/as commands.
-car=qu
-gar=gu
-zar=c
-ger-=j

Stem-changing in -ir only
o=u; e=i

Buscar el perro
el perro=lo (direct object pronoun)
buscarlo
+busquémoslo
-No lo busquemos.
(Let's us look for him; Let's not look for him)
Since buscar ends in -car we must make the spelling change to -qu and since it has a pronoun we must attach it to the positive form and add an accent mark or tilde.
Notice that since it is neither "nos" nor "se" we are keeping the "s" of the original form.
