Cultural Tip
In most Spanish‑speaking countries, asking "¿Estás libre?" is perfectly natural among peers, but it can sound too casual in a business email. In formal contexts replace it with "¿Tiene disponibilidad?" or "¿Podría reunirse con nosotros?". Also, note that the accent on "estás" is essential; omitting it changes the meaning to the verb "estas" (you are).
