💬 Use [soy] for who you are, like your name or job; use [estoy] for states or feelings. Compare [soy Ana] with [estoy cansado].

💬 Spanish usually drops the subject pronoun, so just [soy] already means [I am]. That's why [Soy ^FIRST^ ^LAST^.] sounds natural without saying [yo].

💬 Use [estoy] for temporary states like feelings or reactions, not identity. Compare [estoy interesado] with [soy ingeniero].

💬 If the speaker is a woman, this changes to [muy interesada]. Many describing words in Spanish change to match the person.

💬 If the speaker is a woman, say [Estoy muy interesada]. The describing word changes to match who is speaking.

💬 After a preposition like [en], Spanish uses the infinitive: [en aprender], [en trabajar], [en conocer]. English often uses -ing here, but Spanish keeps the base verb form.

💬 Spanish often says [en + verb] where English says [to + verb] in phrases like this. You can reuse the pattern: [en conocer más sobre] = [to learn more about].
