    In Spanish, there are differences between the verbs SER, ESTAR, and EXISTIR which are all translated to "to be" in English. SER is used to describe yourself or your relationship to others. ESTAR is used to describe your location or condition. EXISTIR is used to talk about being alive. Possessive adjectives like MI, TU, SU agree with the possessed noun, not the possessor. Common adjectives to describe physical appearance include GORDO for fat, DELGADO for slim, and OJOS AZULES for blue eyes.
