estar – to be (temporary state). Example: Está claro
parecer – to seem. Example: Parece limpo
conseguir – to be able to. Example: Consigo ver longe
Tip: Use eu, você, ele/ela forms. For beginners, keep sentences like Está claro or Eu vejo.
Beginner tips to sound natural
1. Mirror expressions you hear: if someone says Que vista clara, reply with a similar short phrase like Que vista linda.
2. Use gestures: point and say Olha before commenting.
3. Keep sentences present tense and short: Está limpo, Vejo tudo.
4. Practice common combinations: Está claro + location, e.g., Está claro na praia.
Common beginner mistakes and how to avoid them
Mistake: Using wrong verb for temporary states. Avoid saying eu sou claro to mean visibility. Correct is Está claro.
Mistake: Confusing claro (clear) with claro meaning of course. Context matters—use tone to show you mean visible clarity.
Mistake: Overcomplicating sentences. Keep them short: Consigo ver, not Eu consigo perceber a visibilidade hoje.
