and i come across a section of homework i did a while back but completly forgot most of it #facepalm for me to completly understand i have to know the exact translation is or close to in the english language to fully understand what i am trying to say it goes like this.. she says something and i have to answer it.. Examples.. Estás contento? * Yo estoy contento.. Estás enojado? * Yo estoy enojado So ovbiously she is asking me if i am happy or angry.. but when I googled translated it (ya i know not the best translator lol) it comes out as 're happy when i type Estás contento and if i type estas contento it comes out as "there" i have this somewhere in my notes but i am just trying to remember my vocab before i start doing sentences again So what exactly is Estás contento? is it Are you happy? sorry for my newbness lol btw i am living in guatemala and the language is pretty much the same but i noticed a small difference in the vocab here from mexico thanks guys i will be here in these forums lurkn for a while i am sure lol |

And, just as 'estás' conveys the pronoun 'tú (you, familiar)', because of its ending, there is also no need to express 'yo (I)' in the responses to the questions.
In other words, 'estás' means 'you are/are you', and 'estoy' means 'I am/am I'. |
