Hi Rocio, it's the state of being, so it means 'like that' or 'as you are/as it is'. The sentences with it usually translate as 'stay seated (as you are) - don't get up' or "window open-MAMA don't go to bed' = 'don't go to bed with the window open' You can say 'sono mama de ii' = 'it's fine/good like that/the way it is' :)
