How do you say “I’m married” in Spanish: “estoy casado” or “soy casado”?

estoy casado / casada
Spanish self-introduction
“I’m married” — estar is the usual verb, though soy casado is also heard

To say you are married, Spanish speakers usually say estoy casado if you are a man, estoy casada if you are a woman, with estar. The same pattern covers estoy soltero / soltera (single) and estoy viudo / viuda (widowed). You will also hear soy casado, soy soltero and soy viudo with ser; both are correct and understood everywhere, estar is simply the more common choice. What must not change is the -o / -a ending, which matches you.

The clip walks through a full introduction: ¿Cómo te llamas? Me llamo Irene. ¿De dónde eres? Soy de España. ¿Cuántos años tienes? Tengo 40 años, then Estoy soltero, soltera. Estoy casado, casada. Tengo novio, tengo novia. One line worth adding for a retiree, not in the clip but built the same way: estoy jubilado / jubilada, “I’m retired.”
