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. © by Vista Higher Learning, Inc. All rights reserved. 2. 3 -1
