What is the Spanish command for 'Stop'?

• A. Alto.
• B. No toque.
• C. No se mueva.
• D. Policia.

Answer: (A)

A blunt, immediate stop command in Spanish is formed by the word that translates to “Stop” or “Halt,” and that is Alto. It’s the standard, widely recognized term used on stop signs and in police communications, providing a clear, universal directive to cease movement right away. The other phrases don’t fit as the simple stop instruction: "Don’t touch" targets contact rather than movement; "Don’t move" is a more cautious, situational directive and not the common road-stop command; and "Police" identifies the authority rather than ordering action.
