How to use quedar in the affirmative commands
Quedar is mostly used in the imperative with se: quédate (stay), quédese, quédense. "Quédate tranquilo" means "don't worry," and "quédese con el cambio" means "keep the change." Without se, commands are less common, though you might hear "queden" in "que queden así." The table shows the base forms. In formal emails, "quedo atento" (I remain at your disposal) uses the present, but "queden atentos" asks the reader to stay alert.
