✕Common Mistakes
Agora é como 'enviado'.
“É” (ser) describes permanent characteristics; use “tá/está” (estar) for temporary states like a status change.
Agora tá como 'enviada'.
The status label is masculine in the system (“enviado”), so keep the gender consistent.
Agora tá como enviado.
Leaving out the quotation marks can make the sentence sound like you are describing an action rather than a label.

Cultural Tip
The use of “tá” is typical of informal Brazilian Portuguese, especially in chats, texts, and spoken conversation among friends. In formal emails or business documents, replace it with the full form “está”. Also, keep the quotation marks around status words like ‘enviado’ to make clear you are referring to the label shown by the system, not using the word as a verb.
