Cultural Tip
In Brazilian Portuguese "deixa" is the familiar imperative used with friends, peers, or people you address with "você" in a relaxed tone. In a formal environment—especially when speaking to a superior or in written communication—opt for the formal imperative "deixe". Also, placing "também" at the end sounds natural, but you can move it before the adjective for emphasis: "Deixa também seu documento pronto."
