@eltonfc oh, that's an interesting question. I never really thought about it and I think it... explains some things? Do I understand correctly, the question is whether I interpret "close" as "i want (the computer) to close the file" versus "computer, close the file"? Because now I realize i've never ever talked to a computer the way people talk to chatbots and maybe that's one of the reasons it feels really weird. Well, in addition to all those other reasons. So yeah, infinitive in every case and every language for me. I'm communicating a desire for a thing to be done, not giving orders. Edit: and yeah, at least in Latvian and Russian it is and always was infinitive. Saglabāt, сохранить, etc. Never even crossed my mind it's completely ambiguous in English.
