🇫🇷 A bit of French culture
French directions often use the imperative mood: "Tournez à droite" (turn right), "Continuez tout droit" (keep going straight). In the second person singular, "-er" verbs drop their final "s" in the imperative: "tu tournes" becomes "Tourne!", but "vous tournez" stays "Tournez!".
