Ser vs. Estar - These are very common irregular verbs, and they both mean, "to be."
SER is used for identity, professions, nationalities, place of origin, religions, physical appearance, personality, relationships, time, place & date of an event, origin, possession, materials, quantity, price, with passive voice (ser + participle + por), impersonal expressions.
Examples:
Yo soy de Summerville.
Son las dos y media.
Es mi hermana.
Su pelo es largo.
Los estudiantes son inteligentes.
ESTAR is used for location, temporary mental & physical conditions, temporary traits or qualities, a temporary situation with "de", with -ando/-iendo in the progressive tenses.
Examples:
Estoy bien.
¿Estás cansado?
La escuela está en Summerville.
Estamos comiendo.* - This is a different kind of present tense. It is called the present progressive, as it is happening, "right now." You might notice how the second verb is a form of, "comer." The present indicative that we have already learned means, "eat/s."(In this case, the form would be, "comemos." It can also mean, "is/are eating," but this new form with, "estar," only means, "is/are eating," and it emphasizes that is is happening right now."
**For Spanish II, you can also have the past progressive in Spanish, e.g., We were eating, but you will NOT use the preterite form of estar to create this tense.**
