Explanation:

In Spanish, the verbs ser and estar have very different meanings for native speakers. In English these correspond to a single verb (to be), so it is essential to learn to distinguish them correctly in Spanish.

The verb ser is used in Spanish in the following situations:

• inherent physical appearance or personality traits;
• permanent identity or traits (nationality, creed, etc);
• family or personal relationships;
• when or where an event takes place;
• the date, seasons and time;
• the material, the origin or the belonging of an object + preposition of;

The way to conjugate it in present simple is as follows:

• yo soy  
• tú eres  
• él es  
• nos. somos  
• vos. sois  
• ellos son
