Cultural Tip

While "online" is perfectly understood, many native speakers prefer the native phrase "en línea" in formal writing or when speaking with older generations. In tech‑savvy environments, "online" feels natural and modern. Also, remember to keep the verb "estar" (temporary state) rather than "ser" (inherent characteristic).
