주찬
What is 'for' in korean? How do you say 'for' in korean? I learned that it's "위하다" but I've read that it's not often used in spoken language. So how do you say it in korean, like here: 1) I bought food for my dog. 2) I found the song that i will use for my presentation. 3) Do you want me to do it for him? Thank you. And please provide more examples and necessary explanations. 감사합니다!

for = ~를 위해(서) The meaning is right but it's not usually spoken to the letter. 1) 나는 나의 강아지를 위해(for) 음식을 샀어. (This sentence is a little unusual..) → 나는 우리 강아지 주려고 음식을 샀어.(Free translation is more natural.) 2) 나는 프리젠테이션에서(for) 사용할 노래를 발견했어. 3) 너는 내가 그를 위해(for) 그것을 하길 원하니?
