For Spanish NEGATIVE or FORMAL COMMAND, always conjugate the subjunctive. The imperative mood in the second person, singular - “tú” form which looks like the present tense of 3rd person, singular, is used to give informal command in Spanish. Irregular “tú” form verbs have unique spellings “ten, haz, sé, di, ven, pon, ve, sal”, which a foreigner has to memorize, without the benefit of reasoning. For “vosotros” form, dropping the “r“ from all infinitives, before adding the “d”, examples are “ quered, cortad, sufrid…”. Infinitive can be used for informal and/or impersonal command, especially in instructions. In English, command can be indicated by omitting the subject of the verb. Indirect command is used to give a command to someone other than the person being spoken to.

Most of transitive verbs which take a direct objects theoretically can be followed by an infinitive (noun), without using a conjunction or preposition. An infinitive can be used as a noun - as the subject, the direct object of a verb and/or an object of a preposition. The beauty is that the infinitive offers a wide range of uses of a word, without sacrificing its meaning or characteristics as a verb.
