Immigrate. See
emigrate.Impact. Impact does not mean to a ect or to in uence and should not be used in that sense. WRONG Poverty impacts the ability to learn and earn RIGHT:
“Poverty a ects/diminishes the ability to learn and earn Impact is properly used mainly as a
noun meaning a blow or a collision. As a
verb the word denotes pushing or packing together and is usually applied to teeth The teenager has impacted wisdom teeth.”
Imperative. Verbs can be used to describe
actions or states of being, but they also can be used to request or demand action of someone Read this carefully When verbs command, they are said to be in the imperative
mood.Most verbs in the imperative take their main or root form.
Commonly, imperative statements add an
exclamation point to emphasize that they are commands, demands,
or important requests Form a line Even with the addition of please
to a sentence like the example, an exclamation point can be used to mark an imperative statement. However, mild, nonimperious imperatives need not have any exclamation attached to them but can appear with a period Consider this This example would probably look a bit odd with an exclamation point.
The
subject of an imperative statement is usually omitted and merely implied—you do this or that, with the
“you” not stated. However, an explicit subject can appear.
When it is you it is treated as any subject You
get to work The appearance of“you” is an emphatic device in itself, and imperatives with explicit subjects often end in exclamation points. When there is a subject that is not you it is usually treated as being in apposition to the implied you and is therefore set o with a
comma:“Soldiers, pickup your weapons Military commands of this sort usually
have an exclamation point, by the way.
Two short imperatives in the same sentence constitute two independent
clausesand therefore should be separated by a comma. However, since the subjects of the imperatives are the same by implication and do not appear in the sentence, such a comma is frequently omitted Rise and shine The longer the imperative statements or the more possible
confusion of implied subjects, the more necessary a dividing comma becomes Consider the implications of all the statements we made and you reviewed, and then rewrite what was initially drafted by the others This sentence bene ts from adding the comma between clauses (although it could be omitted without much risk of confusing a reader) and certainly does not need an exclamation point.
More than two imperative clauses should be joined by commas Wake up,
