SER and ESTAR both verbs mean to be.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
SER and ESTAR are both verbs in Spanish that mean "to be," but they are used in different contexts. SER is used to express permanent or inherent qualities, such as nationality, occupation, or physical characteristics. On the other hand, ESTAR is used to express temporary states or conditions, such as location, emotions, or health. Therefore, it is correct to say that both verbs mean "to be" in Spanish, but they have distinct uses.Rate this question:
