專業教師What's the difference between "para" and "por" in Spanish?
What's the difference between "para" and "por" in Spanish? Someone told me "por" is used when there is a purpose. Or have I remembered this incorrectly? Any help is appreciate! Thanks, Finn

Hi Finn!
The meaning of "para" varies depending on the context. It generally means the objective of doing an action or the direction of a moving object.
For example:
- "Voy para la escuela": It denotes a direction.
- "Esta ropa es para lavar": In this case, the objective is to wash the clothes, so you use the word "para".
- "¿Para qué sirve un reloj?: You are asking for the use of a clock, i.e. its objective.
Sometimes "por" can be translated to "by" when talking about locations. So "El carro está por la casa" is "The car is by the house".
It is a short explanation, as the use of prepositions is broad in Spanish as in English.

"PARA" is like the "to" in the English language, and "POR" is as "for", in the English language.
I hope you understand me. Saludos.
