When you're sombre â or somber â you're acting glum, depressed, or sad. Being sombre is the opposite of being perky or happy. This is a word that has to do with the mood of a person or event. A funeral is going to be sombre, and the people at the funeral are usually pretty sombre, too. It's a quiet, serious, and even gloomy kind of feeling. Objects can look sombre if they're dull and colorless.
SER or ESTAR. In Spanish there are two verbs that mean to be something. Because there are two different verbs meaning the same thing there are of course different reasons to use each verb. Generally you would use the verb ser to describe things that are permanent and estar for things that are temporary. For example Yo soy alto , I am tall, because that is a permanent thing. Yo estoy triste, I am sad because that is a temporary thing. However it will be worthwhile to look over the various times to use ser and estar.
