"Bougez pas !"

"Bougez pas !"

I keep making the mistake of dropping "Ne" on this one because I watch a lot of policiers, and when the cops burst into a room they always shout "Bougez pas !" Note to self: don't model your grammar on TV cops.

So during non-formal speech you always drop the "ne" in L'impératif présent?
