Because 1-1

20. Because 1-1

Egon, in Southern Basque (Spain), is used like the Spanish word “estar” for physical, mental or emotional states and locations,
while Izan is used like the Spanish word “ser”, for characteristics of the object and jobs, that do not change quickly.
In some cases, using the use of Egon Vs Izan can mean have different meanings.
Hura pozika da. (He/she is a happy person.(normally happy))
Hura pozik dago. (He/she is glad/happy. (now/to meet you/to see you,etc))
To ask questions about the state of someone or something, the question word “nola” can be used.
When we answer the question Nola? or Zer moduz? the appropriate verb is egon,
since emotions and physical state are temporary, just as it is when discussing location.
Words to describe the temporary state, such as: happy, sad, seated, angry, tired, etc. do not have case endings added to them.
