In Brazilian Portuguese, 'ser fácil' is the standard formal translation. However, colloquial speech often uses 'ser moleza' or 'ser tranquilo' to emphasize ease or a relaxed attitude. In American English, 'be easy' is often used as encouragement to remain calm or patient, a usage that translates well to Brazilian Portuguese as 'fica tranquilo' or 'relaxa.'
