For that you need the imperative
[That would be Befehlsmodus to you Herr Inselaffe ]

Hi dieseldave.
At the risk of being an ĂĹberpedant, it is Befehlsform (or der Imperativ)!!

Not at all ĂĹberpedant Inselaffe, because both âBefehlsmodusâ and âBefehlsformâ have the same meaning and are both correct.
If you check my word, you see it says âSprachw.â
As further evidence, Modus also has âSprachw.â in some dictionaries.
Just as a little test, please look up the word âModus.â

Thereâs not one word of English in that book
Like anything else in German, itâs far from plain sailing
However, Iâd instantly agree that the word you used is possibly the better of the two
Would you agree that I wasnât entirely wrong

I doff my hat in your direction.
Nice one, Dave.
Ich wurde eines besseren belehrt!!!

I wouldnât say that TBH.
I still reckon that the word you chose would be better understood and in wider useage.
My choice was equally correct, but with hindsight, maybe rather âtechnicalâ IMHO.
I was doing full I.O.L. until circumstances forced me out.
