How to use mostrar in the affirmative commands
The tú command is muestra; the others come from the subjunctive: muestre (usted), mostremos (nosotros), muestren (ustedes). Muestre su boleto and Muestren sus identificaciones are typical at entrances and checkpoints. Pronouns attach with an accent: muéstrame. Negative commands use the subjunctive: no muestres la contraseña. In casual Latin American Spanish, enséñame is just as common as muéstrame in many countries.
