A few interesting comments from the forum.

  • ficar also means "to be" at times
  • "ninguém foi ferido," is more like no one was injured by other person

  • "ninguém ficou ferido," is more like a consequence of something
    – a torre caiu, mas ninguém ficou ferido

  • ficar implies a passive sense of getting. Not getting like "acquiring" but more like "becoming:"
    – getting hot (ficar com calor, ficando quente)
    – getting hungry (ficar com fome)
    – getting old (ficar velho, ficando velho)
    – getting dirty (ficar sujo, ficando sujo)
    – getting more beautiful (ficar mais bonito, ficando mais bonito)
    as coisas ficaram tão caras ou "as coisas têm ficado…"
       (things have become so expensive, things got so expensive)
