When should I use the verb "to stand"? I'm a bit confused because one meaning of "to stand" in spanish is "estar" (the same meaning that to be). Thanks!

Look at these examples: -He was standing on a chair to change the lamp. -My mother couldn’t stand my friends! (She hated them 😀😀) -There are more than 55000 participants, I don’t stand a chance. -He tried to silence her but she stood her ground. (She resisted and defended her position) -We are going to visit the church that stands on the hill. -He decided not to smoke again and his decision still stands (he still isn’t smoking) -Nobody clearly knows where he stands on this issue! (What his position is) Hope these examples can help because stand is used in a very broad sense!

Although I think most people would agree that the basic meanings are the one about physically standing, not sitting or lying down - as in "Stand over there please" - and the one about location, as in "Buckingham Palace stands at the end of the Mall", there are indeed a few situations were you can use it as something like a synonym of "to be". I stand corrected. I stand to gain a great deal of money. There are probably others.
