In Spanish, the 3rd person (singular and plural) of the present subjunctive is used to form the formal mandates.

In informal mandates, the 3rd person singular of the present indicative is used to form the affirmative mandates and the 2nd person (you) of the present subjunctive to form the negative mandates.

In the example of the formal mandate:

AFFIRMATIVE: ¡Hable!

NEGATIVE: ¡No hable!

In the example of the informal mandate:  

AFFIRMATIVE: ¡Habla!  

NEGATIVE: ¡No hables!

all you have to do is look up a guatemalan dish (unless you have learned of a few in your lessons). we cannot provide you with answers because i am assuming you are a connections student due to having to complete a discussion. and that is against our honor code to provide written answers to portfolio, essay, or discussion questions.

this is a simple question and should take you no time to answer! : )

good luck!
