Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: 2: LP: Ser vs Estar practice - Amanda Rieder | Library | Formative
Let’s go step by step through each sentence and decide whether to use ser or estar.

Remember:
- Use ser for permanent traits, identity, origin, profession, time, and inherent qualities.
- Use estar for temporary states, emotions, locations, and conditions that can change.

---

1. Nosotras no ___ cansadas.
→ “Cansadas” = tired → temporary state → estar
*estamos* (but we just need the verb form — so “estar” is correct category)

2. El señor González ___ muy amable.
→ “Amable” = kind → personality trait → usually permanent → ser
*es*

3. En cambio, el señor Pérez ___ muy grosero.
→ “Grosero” = rude → also a personality trait → ser
*es*

4. Esta puerta ___ cerrada.
→ “Cerrada” = closed → condition/state of the door → can change → estar
*está*

5. Juan ___ enfadado y preocupado.
→ Emotions → temporary → estar
*está*

6. Patricia ___ muy simpática.
→ Personality trait → ser
*es*

7. Esta computadora ___ vieja.
→ Age/condition of object → but “vieja” here describes its inherent quality (not temporarily old) → ser
*es*

8. El autobús ___ lleno.
→ “Lleno” = full → current state → can change → estar
*está*

9. La luz ___ encendida.
→ “Encendida” = on/lit → temporary state → estar
*está*

10. Nosotros ___ ingleses.
→ Nationality → identity → ser
*somos*

11. Ella no ___ peluquera.
→ Profession → ser
*es*

12. Perdón ¿esta silla ___ ocupada?
→ “Ocupada” = occupied → temporary state → estar
*está*

13. (tú) ¿De dónde ___?
→ Origin → where you’re from → ser
*eres*

14. ¿Dónde ___ las llaves?
→ Location → estar
*están*

15. El hotel ___ en la calle “Colón”.
→ Location → estar
*está*

---

Now let’s list the answers in order with the correct verb forms (conjugated appropriately):

1. estamos → but since the instruction says “Completa con SER o ESTAR”, and the blanks are for the infinitive? Wait — looking at the image again: the student has drawn lines under the blank and colored them green/blue based on ser/estar. But the actual task is to fill in the conjugated verb.

Actually, re-reading the header: “Completa con SER o ESTAR.” — this likely means choose which verb to use, then conjugate it correctly.

But in the image, the student has already marked some with blue/green lines — meaning they’ve chosen ser or estar. Our job is to give the correct conjugated verb for each blank.

So final answers should be the conjugated verbs:

1. Nosotras no estamos cansadas.
2. El señor González es muy amable.
3. En cambio, el señor Pérez es muy grosero.
4. Esta puerta está cerrada.
5. Juan está enfadado y preocupado.
6. Patricia es muy simpática.
7. Esta computadora es vieja.
8. El autobús está lleno.
9. La luz está encendida.
10. Nosotros somos ingleses.
11. Ella no es peluquera.
12. Perdón ¿esta silla está ocupada?
13. (tú) ¿De dónde eres?
14. ¿Dónde están las llaves?
15. El hotel está en la calle “Colón”.

All these match standard Spanish grammar rules.

Final Answer:
1. estamos
2. es
3. es
4. está
5. está
6. es
7. es
8. está
9. está
10. somos
11. es
12. está
13. eres
14. están
15. está
