From Lesson 133:Negative formal commands (no toque, no entren)·Spanish (Latin America)

Questions & Answers about No ignoren las reglas del recorrido guiado.

Why does the verb end in -en (ignoren) instead of -an (ignoran)?
Because this is a formal plural command (an ustedes command). For regular -ar verbs like ignorar (to ignore), you form the command by swapping the usual -an ending for -en. To make it negative, simply put no in front of the verb.
Do I need to include the word ustedes in this sentence?
No, it is usually left out. The -en ending on ignoren already shows that the command is directed at a plural you (ustedes). You could say No ignoren ustedes if you wanted to add emphasis, but it is not required.
Why is it del recorrido instead of de el recorrido?
In Spanish, whenever the preposition de (of) is immediately followed by the masculine singular article el (the), they must combine into the single word del. Because recorrido (tour) is a masculine noun, we must use del.
Why does guiado come after recorrido?
In Spanish, descriptive adjectives usually come after the noun they describe. Here, recorrido is the noun (tour) and guiado is the adjective (guided), so it is written as recorrido guiado (literally tour guided).
