I am so encouraged by this episode. I am watching to get to know the use of POR and PARA. What I have found is that I am able to translate, with near perfect accuracy all of the sample sentences into Spanish. This illustrates yet again, to me how great you are Dr Evans. Thankyou so much for what you do.

I discovered your videos and podcasts recently, and boy am I glad I did! I love how you tackle one topic at a time, explaining it simply and clearly. Your verb chart has been a game changer for me, also how you group those pesky pretérito irregular verbs, I finally feel I have half a chance of remembering some of them!

Sir, I'm a little confused with the usage of 'a' in few contexts where it means 'for'.. Like the example you gave, 'Por su amor a los niños'... Why not 'por los niños?? I'm glad I found an amazing teacher!! The best part about your teaching is, you keep it simple and clear! Me gustan sus lecciones.. Muchas gracias!!

@myk1137 3 жыл бұрын

Her love to children.Don't forget that "for" means "to" as well.They tend to use "to" more than "for" in places where you can put both for and to.

@unusualle4326 3 жыл бұрын

When the direct object of a verb is a specific person or pet animal, 'a' is placed immediately before it. So for your case, I believe amor is the verb of the sentence, 'a' would be placed right after it. Keep in mind though, this type of 'a' is a personal 'a'. You can do more research on that. Something to remember is that a personal 'a' is NOT used after the verb 'tener'. It's used for every other verb, however, you must include the rule that I mentioned above, which is that 'a' is placed right after the verb if the sentence contains a specific person. Hope this helped!

@myk1137 3 жыл бұрын

@@unusualle4326 Amor isn't even a verb there.You're right on everything else but amor is a name. You cannot conjugate it so it's not a verb.

@williamobrien2253 3 жыл бұрын

@@myk1137 The phrase "por su amor a los niños" is translated "for her (his) love for the children". It indicates the reason that she/he is doing something. It would more accurately be translated as doing something "because of her/his love of the children". Her/his "love of the children" is the motivation for what is being done.

The prepositions por and para, of similar etymological origin, are very common in Spanish. In general, indicates destination, purpose or final objective; indicates the cause and means through which an end is reached.

The differences between por and para was initially quite challenging for me. But eventually, I encountered enough differences to remember them, and also remember their meanings. And at times, the differences can be very subtle. It's the sort of thing which is best learned by the particulars in a text book in a classroom setting.
