Transcript Lección 1

In Lección 1, you learned how to
conjugate and use the verb ser (to be). You will
now learn a second verb which means to be,
the verb estar. Although estar ends in -ar, it
does not follow the pattern of regular -ar verbs.
The yo form (estoy) is irregular. Also, all forms
have an accented á except the yo and
nosotros/as forms.
