Verb Question

Hi.

I'm just starting with Spanish, and am following the advise of Ramón Campayo to learn an extended list of basic vocab before bothering with a lot of the grammar.

So, for instance, I'm supposed to learn the following verbs:

To Be
To Have
There Is
To Want
To Love
To Help

When I go to <snip> and type in to be, I see that be can be translated into ser and estar

When I type in "try" <snip> I see there are multiple words that you can translate it into.

I'm curious to know what's going on here, and which of the words I should learn.

When I looking for translations should I go with just the word 'love" or should I put a to in front of it, "to love"?

Do I just take the first translation?

Any advice welcome.

Thanks.
