La diferencia es que por, es cuando quieres hace algo por alguien o hace algo teniéndo a ello como razón .
Y para es dar , dirigido a alguien.
Ejem. lo hice por ti
Es para ti
Intenté explicarlo como pude, disculpa si no te ayuda mucho.
- Spanish (Mexico)
[For/to] - "Para" is used to indicate the purpose, the aim.
Examples:
• Estamos listos para la fiesta (We're ready for the party)
• Estoy estudiando para aprobar el examen (I'm studying to pass the test)
[For/because] - "Por" is used in all other cases. It often indicates the cause, the motive.
For example:
• He estado esperando por ti (I've been waiting for you)
• No pudimos ir por el clima (We couldn't go because of the weather)
