 Imperativus Pro Infinitivo

The term "Imperativus Pro Infinitivo" (often abbreviated as IPI) refers to a grammatical construct in Latin where the imperative mood is used in place of an infinitive. This usage typically serves to express commands, requests, or obligations in a way that would usually be conveyed with an infinitive form. In many instances, this construction can occur in indirect speech or in contexts where a more direct command is preferred.
