English nerds: In the statement "forget you", what part of speech would "forget" be? Only statements like that and "screw you" use this as I cannot seem to think of any other single directed word at someone existing in this context.


it is a command.  there is an implied subject before it.

Should be a verb. I think. Jesus Christ ladios, you just broke my brain.

What Nexus said.
forget is a verb.

Its a verb.

Here is how the sentence goes.

(you) Is the understood subject pronoun
forget is a action verb
and you is a pronoun

Improper grammar.  You forget you?  It should be, 'forget yourself'
Just like aren't I is improper - I are just isn't right.

We're not talking about punctuation...

I don't know if it has any real definition, because it is improper grammar.

The statement itself seems more like an interjection. But do interjections even have a category?

I don't think it is a verb, however, because of the way it is used. What are you implying is doing the loving? Or does it mean forget yourself? forget in some contexts can be a noun. It is one of the most versatile words.

Dude, since there is no subject noun they make (you). You is not mentioned in the sentence but it is directed at a person, henceforth the person is (you)

Dude stop loving using loving bisjac's loving avatar.
forget.

Exactly. It's improper.
Rather than "Me and my friend.", it would be "My friend and I."

Since there is a implied subject, that makes it a command.

forget.
lovey beast week. Then left for awhile. Then came back. Now make new avatar
