command is a shell command for executing a command without invoking a function or alias that has the same name.cite-ref-1[1] The command line arguments consist of an inner command line to executed. If the first argument is the name of a function or alias as well as the name of a command, then normally the function or alias takes precedence, but when passed as an argument to command the inner command is invoked instead of the function.cite-ref-2[2]

The command is available on Unix and Unix-like operating systems. It is specified in the POSIX standard and is often implemented in Unix shells as a shell builtin function or alias.
