Hablando de oxido en motos...
Domčnec
oxidan las motos... Puedo aportar lo que se comenta en un grupo de un pais
lluvioso donde es habitual tener la moto de disfrutar en verano y el "winter
hack" o hierro para moverse a diario durante la epoca lluviosa del año? Y
que en su web hablando del nivel de oxidacion de las Suzuki se dice "su
ingeniero de materiales es un mono borracho".
Pues eso, que aqui el oxido no es problema, pero no deja de serlo aun ;-)

Pretty sure it's Es. Your nationality doesn't change that much - pretty
permanent.

Yes, but there is one thing in particular that went against the
rule. I can't remember what it was.
<googles a bit>
Found it. Place takes `estar': ¿Dónde está el hotel?, even though the
hotel's position is permanent. Likewise, marriage is considered
permanent (`ser'), even the day before a divorce.

Muy bien. I'm sure there are others. Still less confusing than the whole
masculine/feminine thing, IMO.

I don't mind that, it's easy enough to spot from the endings unless
it's an exception to be remembered.

"La mujer de mi hermano es catalana y está cachonda"
Because she will always be Catalan but won't be horny for too long.
Depending on your brother, of course.

"Tu estás casado hasta que te divorcias" sounds ok.
"Tu eres/estás soltero hasta que te casas", depending on likelihood of
getting married.
But... "Estoy casado" and "Soy un casado".

Actually, in my case, it's more likely that the remnants of the Armada

Some UKRMer has had sexual identity issues in es.charla.moteros due to
misundertandings of colloquial Spanish, but you can still cal him Paul, not
Loretta.

And "to be dead" uses estar, because of religion, apparently.
The location thing applies to all objects though. So although a building
may appear permanent (to us), it's not really. Plus other objects move
more frequently.

Given that his Spanish is so much better than mine, I am now worried.

Ser and estar isn't about temporary and permanent.

As far as the in-laws are concerned, if you're not Catalan, Basque or
Galician, you're Castilian.

Not really.
You might say that about the language spoken, but not about the land.
For example basques are castillian in some way.
But many other places are none of what you said, for example:
Asturias, León, Aragón, Navarra,...
M J Carley
I was being slightly facetious.
Paul Carmichael
And he wouldn't believe the insane nationalist bickering that goes on. I
was recently in Castilla y León and on signs they had crossed out the
"Castilla" and painted slogans like "No somos Castellanos". And all that
stuff going on in Cataluña - everyone understands castellano but if you
go to court for anything and you don't speak catalán, you have to have an
interpreter. Bonkers.

This is regionalism, not nationalism.
That´s because León and Castilla are differente regions into one
"Comunidad Autónoma"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Leon
Is totally different of what happens in Cataluña

Allow me to laugh at you, thanks :-/ Use of Spanish at trial courts may soar
to 80% as long as many judges are temporarily here, don't speak a word of
Catalan and don't intend to, even if a local has the right to use it. So you
better switch to Spanish if you don't want to be in deep shit with your
legal issues.
Just another example of how reality may differ with what Madrid based press
says.

view of the political situation in all the kingdoms of Spain.

Well, in the Pyrenees (northern side) there is an Aran valley which is
culturally Occitanian, so they can claim not to be Catalan, which we all
agree and there are no issues :-)
