      Location

    Correct Answer
    C. Personality
    Explanation
    Estar is a Spanish verb that is used to express temporary states or conditions. It is not used to describe someone's personality, as personality traits are considered to be more enduring and permanent characteristics. Estar is commonly used to talk about health, emotions, and locations, as these are all temporary states that can change over time. Therefore, personality is not a use of Estar.

    Correct Answer
    A. Soy
    Explanation
    When describing one's personality, the form of "ser" is used. "Soy" is the first person singular form of "ser" in present tense, which means "I am." This form is used to express permanent or inherent qualities, such as personality traits. Therefore, "soy" is the correct answer when describing one's personality.

    Correct Answer
    B. Somos
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "somos" because it is the first person plural form of the verb "ser" in Spanish, which means "to be." This form is used when referring to a group of people or when talking about oneself along with others. So, "somos" is the correct form to use when saying "we are."

    The correct answer for the real translation of "ser" is "to be". In Spanish, "ser" is a verb that is used to indicate permanent or inherent qualities, characteristics, or identities. It is used to express existence, nationality, profession, and other essential attributes. Therefore, "to be" accurately captures the meaning and function of the verb "ser" in Spanish.
