also requires a subject. In some cases—particularly in English, less so in German, and occasionally in French—colloquial expressions allow for the omission of the subject in a manner similar to that of Spanish or Russian: "[It] Sounds good." "[I] Bumped into George this morning." "[We] Agreed to have a snifter to catch up on old times." "[You] Went down to Brighton for the weekend?" The imperative form Even in such non-null-subject languages such as English, it is standard for clauses in the imperative mood to lack explicit subjects; for example: "Take a break—you're working too hard." "Shut up!" "Don't listen to him!" An explicit declaration of the pronoun in the imperative mood is typically reserved for emphasis: "You stay away!" "Don't you listen to him!" French and German offer less flexibility with respect to null subjects. In French, it is neither grammatically correct nor possible to include the subject within the imperative form; the vous in the expression taisez-vous stems from the fact that se taire, "to be silent," is a reflexive verb and is thus the object with similar meaning to "yourself" in an English imperative. In German, the pronoun (singular du or plural ihr) is normally omitted from the informal second-person imperative (Mach das, "Do it"), although it may be added in a colloquial manner for emphasis (Macht ihr das!, "You [guys] do it!"). By contrast, the addressee-specific formal imperative requires the addition of the pronoun Sie (as in Machen Sie das!, "Do it, [sir/ma'am]!") to avoid confusion with the otherwise morphologically identical infinitive, whereas the addressee-nonspecific or "neutral" formal imperative omits the pronoun and moves the verb to final position (as in Bitte nicht stören, "Please do not disturb"). On the other hand, the pronoun wir is always included in the first-person plural imperative (Machen wir das!, "Let's do it!"), with the verb appearing in first position to differentiate the imperative from the indicative mood, wherein the verb appears in second position (as in Wir machen das, "We're doing it"). Auxiliary languages Many international auxiliary languages, while not officially pro-drop, permit pronoun omission with some regularity. Interlingua In Interlingua, pronoun omission is most common with the pronoun il, which means "it" when referring to part of a sentence or to nothing in particular. Examples of this word include Il pluvia. It's raining. Il es ver que ille arriva deman. It is true that he arrives tomorrow. Il
