Jussive mood
The jussive (abbreviated JUS) is a grammatical mood of verbs for issuing orders, commanding, or exhorting (within a subjunctive framework). English verbs are not marked for this mood, but the modal verb "should" is commonly used for the same purpose. The mood is similar to the cohortative mood, which typically applies to the first person by appeal to the object's duties and obligations,[citation needed] and the imperative, which applies to the second person (by command). The jussive however typically covers the first and third persons. It can also apply to orders by their author's wish in the mandative subjunctive, as in the English, "The bank insists that she repay her debt."
Classical and Standard Arabic verbs conjugate for at least three distinct moods in the imperfect: indicative, subjunctive and jussive.
The main use of this mood is in negative commands.
