How to use decidir in the affirmative commands
The commands are regular: decide (tú), decida (usted), decidamos (nosotros), decidan (ustedes). They are useful for passing a choice to someone else: Decide tú. Negative commands use the subjunctive: no decidas nada todavía. With the reflexive, the pronoun attaches: decídete, make up your mind. Decidamos is useful in meetings to push for a decision now rather than later. The usted form decida appears in polite customer service, where staff let the customer choose a time or an option.
