jussive
Meanings (ES + gloss)
yusivo
The jussive mood, a verb inflection used to indicate a command, permission or agreement with a request; an instance of a verb so inflected.
As far as the jussive goes — ignoring the very few occurrences of this in first person — it can be noted that most of the second-person jussives are in negative commands.
For example, in the Aaronide blessing, only two of the six verbs are formally jussives, yet all have the same volitional sense.
