REPORTED COMMANDS

The structures to report commands are formed using the "to-infinitive" in statements and "not + to-infinitive" in negative statements. If we report somebody's commands, we use the verb told. 

Commands

• Go to bed!
• He told me to go to bed.

• Don't go to bed!
• He told me not to go to bed.
