Note for Transphy: If you get Google translate to translate 'προστακτικό', it will suggest 'imperative'. Then, write 'peremptory' in the Google search box and see the definition given by the New Online Dictionary. It will give you two legal examples, the second one being, "Not allowing contradiction or refusal; imperative: The officer issued peremptory commands."

Another note for Transphy: Now get Google translate to translate "peremptory". It will suggest, "επιτακτικός". Then, put "επιτακτικός" into Google translate and it will suggest "imperative", which is a synonym for "peremptory". Most Greek to English dictionaries will define "προστακτικός" to mean "imperative", but in legal English, the word "peremptory" is often used instead of "imperative", in the same way that "promulgate" is used instead of "announce" and "construe" is used instead of "interpret".
Peer comment(s):

neutral transphy : I thought 'peremptory'= οριστικόν, ανένδοτον!!! όχι 'προστακτικό' ( προστάζει)=orders

Well, I suggest you look it up again then in a good dictionary. Try the New Oxford Learners dictionary of Modern Greek, Greek to English volume! Then check peremptory and peremptory writ in the Google search box!
