What is the simple subject of an imperative sentence?

The simple subject of an imperative sentence is understood to be "you".

Even though "you" isn't explicitly stated, the command is directed at the listener or reader.

Here are some examples:

* Close the door. (Subject: "you")

* Go to the store. (Subject: "you")

* Be quiet. (Subject: "you")
