命令形(3グループ) (meireikei (3 guruupu)) — Imperative form — Group 3 (irregular)

Only two verbs, and no rule applies — you memorise them.

Formula (सूत्र ढाँचा)

します
しろ do it!
来ます
来い koi

Grammar rule (व्याकरण नियम र परिभाषा)

Group 3 has only two verbs, します and 来ます, and no rule applies to either. します → しろ. 来ます → 来い (read 「こい」). しろ is very useful because it works with every 〜します word: 勉強します → 勉強しろ, 掃除します → 掃除しろ, 注意します → 注意しろ. 来い has no ろ — that is the most commonly forgotten point. The reading of 来ます changes between き and こ across its forms, so fix it in your memory that 来い is read 「こい」.
