If I wanted to say 'i may be going away on that day' would I use ir, irse or another verb? Also, would the verb be in the subjunctive?
Thanks in advance
The topic is the Mosque-Cathedral in Córdoba
Se encuentra en Córdoba, la que fue la capital del Califato Omeya andalusí, que fue proclamado por Abderramán III en 929.
Could I say:
Se encuentra en Córdoba, la capital del Califato Omeya andalusí, que fue proclamado por Abderramán III en 929.

Since The main differences between ser and estar include that ser is used for permanent qualities, like your name, your place of origin, and your physical appearance, while estar is used to talk about temporary situations, such as how you’re feeling right now or your location.
So why is SER used in this sentence: Tú eras muy bueno. - the person that you are talking to is not always good so it is not a permant state.
Ditto in the following sentence. You are not always rich so why use SER in the following: Vosotros erais ricos.

So, pura vida is used instead of hola or cómo estás? How would one translate pura vida in a casual conversation? As "hello", "how are you" or as "awesome" or something else?
Why does the word "llamáis" (or a lot of other verb forms for vosotros) have an accent on the penultimate syllable even though it ends with the letter s?

For the second sentence, you hint to use El Pretérito Indefinido but the right answer is "era" which is El Pretérito Imperfecto. I should have gotten it anyways but just wanted to let you know in case you want to change the hint.
It it not constructive for my learning, that I get wrong answers in my tests, when I use European Spanish, because the tests sometimes use European and sometimes Latin American. It is confusing. And from a learning perspective not efficient
