  • @polimnia88 so do i. but i am vietnamese,not italian, hihihi. it s very convenient

  • Because of your lessons, I can now learn 3 languages!

    (English, Spanish and Filipino)

  • It really would be so much simpler to explain that the verb "Ser" is used for permanent situations such as a person's name, or their sex, and that "Estar" is used for temporary situations such as being in an office, or eating a meal, rather than just giving lots of examples of their uses in the hope that the students will work it out for themselves.

  • @thesuntheneonlight "La" goes for the feminine, and "el" is for the masculine. it helps distinguishes nouns (practically, all Spanish words) whether to use an 'a' as in HERMANA (sister) or "o" for HERMANO (brother).

    La hermanA ... El hermanO

  • @iamnotgo

    "estar" : Temporary situations, and in places . ( I am at work = Estoy en el trabajo .)

    (Estoy cansado = I am tired )

    "ser" :

    Permanent ones. (qualities and so)

    I am a wizard = Soy un mago

    I am smart = soy inteligente

    I am lazy = Soy vago .

    I am a IT worker = Soy informatico

  • @riotforthepunx you are right

  • ok i'm confused now. In what situation out i use estar vs. ser

  • vos sos español y hablas inglés?

  • @AMirrorNeverLies

    El Diablo means 'the devil' , so I think 'el' means 'the' when the word coming next is male-like. Just like in French with le and la. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
