About this listen
In Spanish, the verbs ser and estar both mean "to be", but they are not interchangeable—and when combined with “bueno” or “bien”, they can totally change the meaning of your sentence.
In this episode, you'll learn:
- ✅ When to use ser bueno vs. estar bueno
- 💡 Why “estar bien” doesn't always mean someone feels okay
- ⚠️ Subtle (and sometimes funny!) shifts in meaning when you use the wrong verb
We’ll also cover expressions you’ll hear in daily conversations, plus examples from real-life Spanish in Argentina. Get ready to level up your fluency and avoid common misunderstandings!
