Can you say "Que lo pases bien"? And in this instance you use pases instead of pasas because it is subjunctive, correct? Another way to say it could be "Espero que tengas un buen cumpleaños" - again with the subjunctive. Would this turn into "Tenga un buen cumpleaños" - as a sort of command form? Or "Ten un buen cumpleaños."
If I remember correctly, "ten" is the informal (2nd person, tú) command form for 'tener'. Do you only use "tenga" for affirmative commands and "no tengas" for negative commands?
