Structure :

多 + Verb + Object

Meaning:

This structure is not used exclusively as a command, so you could also include a subject if you needed to.

Examples:

In English we like to say things like “eat more” and “drink more beer” and “I need to exercise more.” Notice that in every one of these cases, the word “more” (equivalent to this use of 多) comes after the verb in English. In Chinese, it’s more natural to put the 多 before the verb.

    多 吃 点。

    Duō chī diǎn

    Eat a little more.
