You say "Tu eres" or "Tu estás" if you address an older person who you must respect then you say "Usted es" or Usted está".. ☺

Tu eres and Tu estas but you can also write the former two as Eres, Estas the conjugation of the verb implies you are talking in the second person, and when addressing someone you don´t know or is older it is Usted es, Usted esta.

Depends there are 2 versions of the verb "to be" in Spanish - the first version refers to something you are permanently. For instance -Yo soy Maria. Tu eres Raul. - I am Maria You are Raul
But if you are referring to a state of being less permanent than say my example of a name, then you would say "Tu estas". For example Tu estas chistoso - translated means "You are funny". Someone might be funny in the moment but it doesn't necessarily mean they will be funny forever.

You are has two meanings in Spanish.
It could be the verb Ser, and it would be: Tú eres.
The second choice refers to the verb Estar, and it is: Tú estás.
It's important to know in which context you want to use the conjugation because the verb Ser (to be) has 8 uses in Spanish and the verb Estar (also translated in English as to be) has only 3 meanings.
