How to say "for" in Korean
How would you grammatically convey "for" in Korean? Such as in:
For our language exchange tomorrow...
For our meeting today...
For studying a foreign language, speaking is very helpful.
For some people, it is difficult to travel.
Is there one specific rule or are there many usages for this?

G'day, I'm not korean, just a student so I may be wrong, but my understanding is that we use 'for' when we translate from Korean to make it sound more natural. As a rule of thumb i feel 'for' can be expressed either: 을/를, 이/가, 위해, (~를 위해) 용.
"For our language exchange tomorrow let's talk about travel." - "내일 우리 언어 교환이 여행에 대해 이야기할까요. --- But this doesn't sound right -- "내일 우리 언어 교환이 있을 때 여행에 대해 이야기할 수 있나요? sounds better.
"for our meeting today, i want to...." -- 저는 우리의 희의가 하고 싶....."
"For studying a foreign language, speaking is very helpful." --> I don't think this sentence works in English :) you would probs say "when you study a foreign language, speaking is very helpful" would sound more natural.
위해 --> 엄마 위해 저녁식사를 만들었어요. -"For the sake of my mother, i made dinner"
용 (를 위해) --> 한국어 공부(를 위해)용 책 -- "A book for studying Korean"
를/을 --> (나는) 내 시험을 열심히 공부했어요. "I studied hard for my exam"
이/가 --> 시험이 열심히 공부하는 것이 어려워요. "Studying for an exam is hard"
And I usually use "ㄹ 때/ 때" (when) more often than "for" because i know that for doesn't really exist in Korean.
So hopefully this helps, But yeah I'm not a native Korean, just a student. SO if i have made any mistakes i apologise. If you have other q's about this or i haven't explained well enough, just tell me.
