4.32 advice and warnings
You can use the imperative mood when you are giving advice or a warning.
Often advice or a warning is expressed in a negative form. You form a negative imperative by putting 'don't' or 'do not' in front of the base form of the verb.
You can also form a negative imperative by putting 'never' in front of the base form of a verb.
Another way of giving advice or a warning is to use one of the modals 'should' or 'ought to' in a declarative sentence.
This use is explained in detail in paragraph 4.219.
