The three words above are all different. The first is an adjective, the next is a pronoun, and the last one is a verb. My question is about the pronunciation. Since the words have only 2 syllables, there can only be two distinct pronunciations. How is "esta" pronounced? Do you say it with equal emphasis on both syllables?
esta ésta está

Esta and ésta are pronounced identically.
