werdet

Werdet is the second-person plural imperative form of the German verb werden, used to address multiple people with the sense of encouraging them to adopt a state or begin an action. It translates roughly as "become" in grammatical terms, but in everyday usage it often yields English imperatives such as "be calm" or "be creative" when completed with an accompanying adjective or predicate. Examples include phrases like "Werdet ruhig" (Calm down) and "Werdet kreativ" (Be creative). The form comes from the stem werd- plus the ending -et, which marks the plural imperative in German.
