WEEK 2: “Ser” and “Estar”
The present tense of ser
Ser is an irregular verb; its forms do not follow the regular patterns that most verbs
follow. You need to memorize the forms, which appear in this chart.
Uses of Ser
Use ser to identify people and things
Ser also expresses possession, with the preposition de. There is no Spanish
equivalent of the English construction
[noun] + ’s (Maru’s). In its place, Spanish uses [noun] + de + [owner].
Ser also uses the preposition de to express origin
Use ser to express profession or occupation.
Unlike English, Spanish does not use the indefinite article (un, una) after ser
when referring to professions, unless accompanied by an adjective or other
description.
