Sido or estado
a mexican girl who can't speak english wrote to me yesterday como ha sido tu dia hoy. now i am sure that she is an expert and she should know more than me but i am just about certain that she is wrong. she @ least should have said como haS tu dia hoy. but the bigger error is the use of the word sido. basically she used ser instead of estar. was she correct? i think she used the wrong word. i think it should have been como has estado tu dia hoy. am i right or was she right?

When she said Como ha sido tu dia, this sentence with the phrase sido is right , she also can uses the word Estado to verb to be. For example, I want to say. Como ha estado hermana. (How are your sister been? You can't use the word side in that example only you can use the word to be in past. Other ones. Como sido tu vida. ( How have been your life?) This sentence also is right. They are both are correct thus as Sido and estado in the same sentence. I hope you can understand me.

@hola: there is to me a little nuance in meaning.
"¿Cómo ha estado tu día?" would be asking how you feel about your day and could be also asking about your activities. "¿Cómo ha sido tu día?" would be more about the activities you did during the day. Still, you're right about feeling it strange. The usual question is more "cómo estuvo" than "cómo fue". In Mexico it's even more common to ask "¿Cómo te fue hoy?" ![]()

I have heard...."¿como ha sido tu dia hoy?" = How has your day been...... if you want a literal translation.
The question leaves it open for you to (fill in the blank) for lack of a better expression... Hoy, mi día ha sido ..... -duro -difícil -muy ocupado -despacio -aburrido I don't see anything wrong with that expression. my ![]()
