“Estar” is indeed used to express a temporary state of being and is essential for forming the present progressive tense in Spanish, which describes actions currently in progress.
For example, “Estoy comiendo” translates to “I am eating.” Here, “estoy” (from “estar”) indicates the subject’s current state of being, while “comiendo” conveys the action happening at that moment.
