Estado & sido
I am a little confused about when to use estado and sido
Several internet resources list the following: Estado is from estar and sido is from ser. Hence, estado releases to location. Estado is for changing states. Sido is for permeant traits But then in a Spanish course it has the following examples: Cita:
So why is sido used in some examples and estado in another (especially in examples 1 & 2, which seem to be saying the same thing [e.g. they both say been]). |

Look here for the different uses of estar and ser.

Unfortunately, this "method" to distinguish "ser" from "estar" based on permanent/changing states is very popular, but inaccurate and it causes a lot of confusion for learners. ;(
"Ser" is used for traits inherent to the subject (like "what someone/something is", "what someone/something is like") and "estar" is for features that aren't intrinsic to the subject (there is a process or an accident that made the subject have this characteristic, or their location --like "how someone is doing", "where someone/something is"). Take a look at this thread for the differences between "ser" and "estar".
