okay. have to start with to be.
memorize these:
ser= to be
yo soy= i am
tu eres= you are
el/ella es= he/she is
nosotros somos= we are
ellos/ellas son= they are

can they be used with adjectives and verbs as well?Quote:

yo soy bella
Would Shakespeare's Hamlet be translated to "ser or no ser" then? :)
Ok, I'm not going to chip in, it's professor Miso's thread :) I'll just observe and learn.
okay this leads to the second lesson. the difference between ser and estar.Quote:

ser would be something permanent, estar is temporary...
soy misombra, estoy enferma (sick).
i won't always be sick, but i'll always be misombra.
for things like breathing... things with -ing in spanish end with endo, iendo, ando...
estoy respirando= i'm breathing.
estar=to be (temporary)
yo estoy= i am
tu estas= you are
el/ella esta= he/she is
nosotros estamos= we are
ellos/ellas estan= they are
You guys sound goofy. Just "soy" would work. You don't have to say "Yo soy"
Just like with guitar. "Tocar la guitarra"
Misombra: estoy = estar???
oops i hit edit instead of quote.
sorry!
estar means "to be." estoy means "i am."
in spanish verbs get conjugated. in english the verbs are also conjugated...
to be
I am
You are
He is
They are
We are
i edited post 8 to include the translations...

does estar apply more to verbs and ser to adjectives?
