I'm confused. In the grammar lesson in this website, it says to use yo soy for descriptions like yo soy delgado for i am thin. but in the lesson plans on this site, they teach it as estoy delgado for i am thin. which is right?

under the grammar section , it says that a non permanant verb should use yo soy. contradictions are present here, so i am confused

There are both correct

Estoy delgado is a condition that may not be permanent whereas soy delgado can be permanent.
