Seems like you are omitting the space between "cd" and ".." so bash takes "cd.." as the command name.

Reading the rest of your Q (only read subject earlier):

Each command requires <space> between the command and its first argument, as --
cd<space>..
uname<space>-a

etc.

If you are used to DOS or some other system, this might not be the case there :)
