The verb "estar" is not used in factitive verbs and in general to express inherent or permanent characteristics of a person or thing.
what is the answer
I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. I misunderstood your question.

The verb "estar" is not used in the following instances:

1. To express inherent or permanent characteristics: The verb "ser" is used instead. For example, "Soy alto" (I am tall) or "Ella es inteligente" (She is intelligent).

2. To indicate possession: The verb "tener" is used instead. For example, "Tengo un perro" (I have a dog).

3. In certain idiomatic expressions and fixed phrases: Some expressions use other verbs or adjectives instead of "estar." For example, "Tengo hambre" (I am hungry) or "Tengo frío" (I am cold).

I hope this clarifies the situations where the verb "estar" is not used.

I apologize for the confusion earlier. Based on the options you provided, the verb "estar" is not used to express origin. The verb "ser" is used instead to indicate someone's nationality or place of origin. For example, "Soy mexicano" (I am Mexican) or "Ella es de España" (She is from Spain).
