Grammar rule (व्याकरण नियम र परिभाषा)
Group 2 (ru-verbs) has one easy rule — no sound changes at all. From the ます form, drop ます and add ろ. 食べます → 食べ → 食べろ. 見ます → 見 → 見ろ. 起きます → 起き → 起きろ. Group 1 changed a sound but added nothing; Group 2 is the exact opposite — no sound change, but ろ is added. In writing you sometimes see 食べよ (〜よ), but in speech and on the test use ろ.
