| dc.description.abstract | Imperative mood is the form of the verb used in issuing direct commands or orders and they are restricted to second person in both singular and plural. Hortatives are verbs which may be used to encourage people to do something, to express wishes, or exhortation. In this paper I have attempted to describe the imperatives and hortatives in Vwanji particularly the forms and functions. Chapter one includes the background information about the people and the language. Chapter two is about imperatives and in Chapter three I have described the hortatives. Also I have discussed in brief the question of politeness. Finally the conclusion which includes the summary of the paper and suggestion on what I have researched. | en_US |
