The imperative adds -j- to the verb stem (with some spelling changes) before the personal endings: csinál → csinálj ('do!') — and like every conjugation you've met, it has its own indefinite/definite pair: Csinálj valamit! ('Do something!') versus Csináld meg! ('Do it!').

To tell someone what you want a third person to do, Hungarian doesn't use an infinitive the way English does ('I want you to go') — it switches the whole clause to the imperative after hogy: Azt akarom, hogy gyere. ('I want you to come', literally 'I want that you come!').
