Etimologie (Engels)
In summary
Inherited from Old Spanish estar, inherited from Latin stāre (“stand”). Compare English stand. The preterite's origin is unclear, most likely generalized from the preterite of haber (“to have”), hub- (note that b and v are pronounced identically; compare the same development in andar and tener). Compare the same development in Portuguese estar. Cognate with English state. Preterite, imperfect subjunctive and future subjunctive forms are derived from tener.
