I would say “el mundo esta mal” but I’ve the whole American child of Puerto Rican immigrants casualness going on so I don’t know if it’s correct.

(“_ is bad” is a different statement from “bad _”; English uses the same word for both, Spanish doesn’t necessarily, and I don’t know what either one is called because [jazz hands])

I dunno if there's a more formal term for it but it's just the condition vs characteristic distinction Like if you wanted to be super specific in English you'd say "She is in good condition" vs "She is of good character"

Would good condition be the temporary/changeable one?
