First, please translate the following sentences from Spanish to English:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ana est\u00e1 aburrida.<br \/>\nRafael es muy callado.<br \/>\nEstos tomates est\u00e1n muy frescos.<br \/>\nNo me gustan estos pl\u00e1tanos, no est\u00e1n maduros.<br \/>\nEstoy muy orgullosa de mis padres.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Next, please translate these sentences from English to Spanish:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Antonio is a very rich man.<br \/>\nAlberto is very mature for his age.<br \/>\nMarta is very quiet today.<br \/>\nThis food is very tasty.<br \/>\nYou are very annoying today.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Now, I will say a few sentences in Spanish using the adjectives we have practised. I will repeat each twice: once using the verb Ser and the other using the verb Estar. You should repeat the correct one. For example, if I say \u201cLa puerta es abierta\u201d and \u201cLa puerta est\u00e1 abierta\u201d. The correct one is the second choice, as \u201cabierto\/a\u201d is used with the verb Ser only when it means to be sociable\/extrovertive:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No me gusta este libro, es muy aburrido \/ No me gusta este libro, est\u00e1 muy aburrido.<br \/>\nCarla es una interesada, solo quiere amigos ricos \/ Carla est\u00e1 una interesada, solo quiere amigos ricos.<br \/>\nSoy lista para salir \/ Estoy lista para salir<br \/>\nNo entiendo nada, soy muy verde en ingl\u00e9s \/ No entiendo nada, estoy muy verde en ingl\u00e9s.<br \/>\nMario es un pesado, no me deja tranquila \/ Mario est\u00e1 un pesado, no me deja tranquila.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Finally, I will say again a few sentences in Spanish using \u201cbueno\u201d, \u201cmalo\u201d, \u201cbien\u201d and \u201cmal\u201d. Please repeat the correct option:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Este pastel es muy bueno \/ Este pastel est\u00e1 muy bueno. (talking about taste)<br \/>\nLos ejercicios son bien \/ Los ejercicios est\u00e1n bien.<br \/>\nNo hagas eso, es mal \/ No hagas eso, est\u00e1 mal.<br \/>\nLola es una mujer muy buena \/ Lola est\u00e1 una mujer muy buena. (to be a good person)<br \/>\nNo puedo ir a trabajar, soy mala \/ No puedo ir a trabajar, estoy mala.<\/p>\n<p>This is all for today. <\/p>\n<p>Using correctly Ser or Estar, as you will probably have realized by now, is one of the trickiest things to master in Spanish. I hope this lesson has helped you to feel more confident when using these fundamental Spanish verbs.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a1Hasta pronto!<\/p>\n<p>I hope you are enjoying my weekly interactive Spanish lessons.
