Let have some tea.
Hi
Are the sentences #2 and #3 correct? Can "let" be used this way? I'm asking this because mostly sentences start with 'let's' as in 'let's do it'. It seems that the definition below permits this use. Please help me with it. Thank you.
1: Let some other functions be defined in terms of f(x).
2: Let define some other functions in terms of f(x).
3: Let have some tea.
let (verb)
3 a : to give opportunity to or fail to prevent <live and let live> <a break in the clouds let us see the summit> <let the opportunity slip> b— used in the imperative to introduce a request or proposal <let us pray> c— used as an auxiliary to express a warning <let him try>
