I wonder if Andrea realizes how good her videos are? I mean seriously. There are a lot of others that do the same but really they are mostly a bunch of clowns with a Go Pro camera. She has great videos and makes learning fun. Others out there are decent trainers but Andrea puts a lot into her videos which requires a lot of work.
Spanishland School Hola! I discovered your channel while researching direct and indirect object pronoun placement, and I really enjoyed your video on this topic! So I decided to watch your other videos as well. But now I am confused and hope you can help me. I will try to word the Spanish sentences correctly and hope you will please forgive my mistakes. I am still new at this. :) In the sentence, "I am buying a gift for you" (Compro un regalo para ti), would "ti" be an object of the preposition here? And could this also be phrased in Spanish as, "I am buying you a gift" (Te compro un regalo)? If so, would "te" be an indirect object here? One more question: If I wanted to express this using both pronouns, would it also work to say, "Te lo compro"? If so, would "te" be the indirect object pronoun and "lo" be the direct object pronoun to replace "a gift"? I hope that made sense. Gracias!
I love it that you speak in Spanish while giving your lessons!! It's like having a Spanish listening activity and learning rules and tips at the same time.
Hola Mansion. Muchisimas gracias por tu comentario, me alegra que te haya gustado la clase. Porfa dime que otras cosas quieres que yo explique. Un abrazo!
Finally someone teaching spanish with speaking Spanish most of the time in a natural and understandable way. Not english. I really apreciate your effort. Keep up the good work.
This is perhaps the best explanation of the usage of these two words. As someone who has studied Spanish for a long time -- and tried many UA-cam videos -- Spanishland is the best for explaining and breaking down the grammar.
Hi Mark, thank you so much. I am happy to be able to help whenever I can. Remember you can always give us ideas for new videos if there's something in particular you'd liked explained.
This is the best lesson I've ever had about por vs. para. Had some real lightbulb moments listening to this lesson.I still remember the best tip I ever got from one of my Spanish teachers -- para is almost never used, so focus on it. I think it's something as dramatic as an 80/20 common usage split between the two. So she had the case uses for para drilled into us, leaving every other situation to be por. But now that I'm living in Spanish daily, I want to understand the why of what I'm doing, and this is where this video is great. In the first example of motivo versus objectivo, this FINALLY clicked! it's really a case of past and future! Me mudé a Mérida por una vida más segura. Vs. Me mudé a Mérida para descubrir la comida yucateca. In the first one, something in my past made me seek out a safer city. In the second one, I was looking ahead to discovering the cuisine of my new city.
glad i found this three years later - its the first time this is clear to me, and i have watched so many vids about por and para - now all i have to do is practice it - very good work girl

Una de las mejores explicaciones sobre el tema confuso de los famosos "por y para" que he visto en UA-cam..A pesar de que ya manejo bien los dos, no sabía sobre algunos de los usos de "por" que has demostrado en este video.. Saludos y muchas gracias desde Canadá! 😁👍👍
Gracias amiga! He estado estudiando español por unos meses, y he visto algunos videos sobre esta tema, para entender la diferencia. La manera que has comparado los dos fue muy útil para mi. Especialmente cuando usaste las dos columnas para diferenciar cada caso del otro.

at 3:09 . Me gustaS por tu personalidad. Me surprendío terriblemente y enormemente descubrir que GUSTAR se puede usar conjugado en la persona segunda. Anteriormente yo siempre lo he usado solamente como tercera plural o sing. GustAN o GusTA. I am shocked!! Es un cambio de paradigma.
@@SpanishlandSchool Como usted dice 'el tiempo vuela'. Por la tanto, tengamos que estudiar cada el día. Y, por cierto, (A mi) me alegrA y (yo) me alegrO son dos construcciones que me vuelven loco. Transitive verbs like gustar versus reflexive verbs with reflexive pronouns. Yo me pongo triste cuando empezo a examinar reglas de estas frases. Gracias por sus respuestas.
Soy portugues, para mi es un poquito más facil aprender lo español, pero yo lo quiero decir que tu eres muy buena profesora, los ejemplos son muy bacanos!
Thank you for your explanation and guide, one of the better ones that I have seen. Yet, I am still at loss to explain the following examples: "I am in a hurry to work" = "Tengo prisa POR trabajar". On the other hand "I am ready to work" = "Estoy lista PARA trabajar". How would that fit with your guide or is it just something that one has to learn? Thank you!
Hi, thank you! Here's an article from our website where you may find more answers on this subject. spanishlandschool.com/?s=por+vs.+para I hope it helps!
Hola Andrea! Thank you for your nice videos. I like how you make them entertaining. One thing I am confused about in this video is the difference between motivo y objetivo. They sound very similar kind of ideas to me. You gave us the following as an example for objetivo: "Yo estudio espanol PARA hablar con mi familia latina" But to me, it is my motivation (motivo) to talk with the latin family as well as my objective. Could you please clarify this? Gracias!
Thank you for your comment and your observation. Sometimes it can be hard to decide which one to use ("por" or "para") because like you said, the motive and the objective can be the same thing. The best way to decide is taking into consideration the fact that there is a verb, "hablar", so it doesn't sound right to use "por" and then a verb. Remember this. "Por" cannot be followed by a verb. "Para" is followed by a verb. So there is your answer :) I hope this helps!
Gracias Andrea, este es otro gran video con clara explicación para el tema. Me encanta tu manera de enseñar. Eres el mejor. Pero, por favor nota: esa la direccion PDF no están allí. ¿Puede añadir el PDF enlace a esta página? Yo pensar eso, mucho personas tendria deseo la PDF. Por favor mantenar tu muy bueno trabajo. Bien deseos...
Gracias AJ, me alegra que te sirvan mucho las clases, y si tenemos el PDF, here it is again, it is in the description of the video. Look: spanishlandschool.com/por-vs-para-worksheet/
Great video! I'm a bit confused though. Is it sometimes possible to use either "por" or "para" but depending on what you choose it'll change the meaning? For example if you say "I will visit you for your birthday" is the birthday the reason for the visit ? or it could be the objective to be there for the birthday ? I'm not sure my question makes sense ^^ Great video!
Thanks for your comment and yes, your question makes sense :) In this case, the birthday would be the reason. In this case you would say "estaré allá por tu cumpleaños" because the person's birthday is what is causing you to go there, so that is the reason why you're going to that place, therefore you use "por". Hope this helps!
¡Hola! Muchas gracias POR los videos! :) La cuarentena me dio la oportunidad de aprender español, entonces aquí estoy! Hace algunos días que decubrí tu account y veo todos los videos desde el principio. Ηace solo algunas semanas que comencé a aprender , entonces por favor perdóname si lo que escribo en español está mal... Tengo una pregunta, pero no sé exactamente cómo decirlo en español, así que déjenme preguntar en inglés. I downloaded the cheat sheet and in the common mistakes i see gracias followed by "por". Is this the rule, does "gracias" ALWAYS takes "por", even if a verb follows. Por ejemplo: Gracias POR enseñarnos español?
Hi Georgette! Me alegra que tengas la oportunidad de aprender español durante esta época de cuarentena. A great use of your time I believe! :) I'm happy you found us, welcome! It's quite impressive how much you have learned in such a short time. The answer to your question is YES. Even Gracias POR + verb I hope this helps! Keep on learning and watching with us! Let us know if you have any suggestion for a video. Thank you for being part of our community!
@@SpanishlandSchool Gracias POR respoder! What really helps me learning fast is watching series/movies/telenovelas/interviews/shows, anything in spanish with spanish subtitles instead of subtitles in my language. I find it a super fast way to learn! Sometimes your videos help me understand the things i hear and some other times i hear the things i learn from your videos! I love being a part of your community, i am so happy i found you! I learn so much from your videos and thank you for always answering to my questions, teacher! :D
+James Lee, si tienes razon, fue un error de digitacion. Lo siento. Claro, es "reemplaza", no "remplaza" . Con doble e. Espero que hayas aprendido mucho de este video. Dinos que mas temas quieres que tratemos!
"aca" and "aqui" mean pretty much the same, but yes, there is a small difference between the 2 of them: "Aqui" means here. Let's say you are watching Tv and you are looking for the remote. You would ask: A: Donde esta el control?. And your sister, would say soemthing like: B: Aqui! Yo lo estaba usando (This means it was excatly in the same place where she was). But if she had said B: Aca, mira, encima de la mesa (While pointing at it) See so in this case it was not exactly in her place but near. It's simple: If you need to point at the object or place just say "aca" but if it is right where you are say "aqui"
*But I mean when you point at something that is close/ near (maximum 1 meter distance from you) If it is further than that then you would say: allá. Same thing with "por aqui" and "por aca" A: Disculpe, donde esta el banco B: Esta por aqui (si estas en el mismo sitio/ direccion) B: Esta por aca, pero no se muy bien donde (It's like saying: it's around here but I am not sure where) PERO: en un restaurante es muy comun que escuches al mesero decir: Siganme, por aqui! o Siganme, por aca! (In this case they mean the same but just because it became an expression to be used in that context)
cuando( por) viene con infinitivo entonce ¿ qué significa ? por ejemplo (nos invitaron solo por cumplir ) mi pregunta es que esta parte de oración ( por cumplir ) ¿ qué reflecta una razón, una motivacion, un medio , un periodo de tiempo ?
HOLA. ANDREA QUE TE PARECE ESTOS EJEMPLOS? VOY PARA ESPANA DESTINO EL TRABAJO ES PARA SEMANA QUE VIENE FECHA DETERMINADA HIZE LAS TAREAS DOMESTICAS POR TI. O SEA EN TU LUGAR HIZE UN PASTEL PARA TI.O SEA PARA ENTREGARTE,REGALARTE EL ESTA POR EL CENTRO.O SEA NO SABEMOS EXATAMENTE DONDE
Tengo una consulta... 1) Va a la oficina a obtener las boletos. 2) Va a la oficina por obtener las boletos. 3) Va a la oficina para obtener las boletos. ¿Cuál es más correcto?
Menos inglés en este vid, Andrea. Bravo. (Por este virus no puedo salir de Cataluya ahora. Pero quiero viajar al sur del planeta para evitar invierno).
Hi Michael, I can see how this can get a bit confusing. Here's an article from our site, maybe it will help you with this matter: spanishlandschool.com/por-vs-para/#more-4867
'' Vamos a Perú para las vacaciones. '' Me parece que esta oración debe utilizar POR, puesto que las vacaciones suena como si fuera el periodo de tiempo. Pero 'para' es la opción correcta . Very weird. Extraño.

Gracias AJ, me alegra que te sirvan mucho las clases, y si tenemos el PDF, here it is again, it is in the description of the video. Look: spanishlandschool.com/por-vs-para-worksheet/
Great video! I'm a bit confused though. Is it sometimes possible to use either "por" or "para" but depending on what you choose it'll change the meaning? For example if you say "I will visit you for your birthday" is the birthday the reason for the visit ? or it could be the objective to be there for the birthday ? I'm not sure my question makes sense ^^ Great video!
Thanks for your comment and yes, your question makes sense :) In this case, the birthday would be the reason. In this case you would say "estaré allá por tu cumpleaños" because the person's birthday is what is causing you to go there, so that is the reason why you're going to that place, therefore you use "por". Hope this helps!
Muchas gracias :)
De nada :)
Finally, assigned spanish listening practice that isn't speaking at 5000 words per second
There are a lot more where that one came from! Keep on watching and learning with us :)
¡Hola! Muchas gracias POR los videos! :) La cuarentena me dio la oportunidad de aprender español, entonces aquí estoy! Hace algunos días que decubrí tu account y veo todos los videos desde el principio. Ηace solo algunas semanas que comencé a aprender , entonces por favor perdóname si lo que escribo en español está mal... Tengo una pregunta, pero no sé exactamente cómo decirlo en español, así que déjenme preguntar en inglés. I downloaded the cheat sheet and in the common mistakes i see gracias followed by "por". Is this the rule, does "gracias" ALWAYS takes "por", even if a verb follows. Por ejemplo: Gracias POR enseñarnos español?
Hi Georgette! Me alegra que tengas la oportunidad de aprender español durante esta época de cuarentena. A great use of your time I believe! :) I'm happy you found us, welcome! It's quite impressive how much you have learned in such a short time.
The answer to your question is YES. Even Gracias POR + verb
I hope this helps! Keep on learning and watching with us! Let us know if you have any suggestion for a video. Thank you for being part of our community!
@@SpanishlandSchool Gracias POR respoder!
What really helps me learning fast is watching series/movies/telenovelas/interviews/shows, anything in spanish with spanish subtitles instead of subtitles in my language. I find it a super fast way to learn! Sometimes your videos help me understand the things i hear and some other times i hear the things i learn from your videos! I love being a part of your community, i am so happy i found you! I learn so much from your videos and thank you for always answering to my questions, teacher! :D
for frecuencia: i'm not used to using "por" as in English usually we would use "a" is "voy a correr tres veces un semana" un error?
Hi Zhulia. Yes, that is not correct. The correct sentence is: Voy a correr tres veces por semana. Keep practicing! :)
¡Muy bien! ¿Quién es esa sola persona a la que no le gusta este vídeo, ¡dámela!
Hola Andrey, ¡muchas gracias por tu apoyo!
nice video! pero i noticed a typo es reemplaza en vez de remplaza?
+James Lee, si tienes razon, fue un error de digitacion. Lo siento.
Claro, es "reemplaza", no "remplaza" . Con doble e.
Espero que hayas aprendido mucho de este video. Dinos que mas temas quieres que tratemos!
maybe a video on aca vs aqui and por aca por ahi ? it can be confusing somethings... thanks in advance!
"aca" and "aqui" mean pretty much the same, but yes, there is a small difference between the 2 of them:
"Aqui" means here. Let's say you are watching Tv and you are looking for the remote. You would ask:
A: Donde esta el control?. And your sister, would say soemthing like:
B: Aqui! Yo lo estaba usando (This means it was excatly in the same place where she was). But if she had said
B: Aca, mira, encima de la mesa (While pointing at it) See so in this case it was not exactly in her place but near.
It's simple: If you need to point at the object or place just say "aca" but if it is right where you are say "aqui"
*But I mean when you point at something that is close/ near (maximum 1 meter distance from you) If it is further than that then you would say: allá.
Same thing with "por aqui" and "por aca"
A: Disculpe, donde esta el banco
B: Esta por aqui (si estas en el mismo sitio/ direccion)
B: Esta por aca, pero no se muy bien donde (It's like saying: it's around here but I am not sure where)
PERO: en un restaurante es muy comun que escuches al mesero decir: Siganme, por aqui! o Siganme, por aca! (In this case they mean the same but just because it became an expression to be used in that context)
muchas gracias por su explicacion. its makes a lot more sense now!
cuando( por) viene con infinitivo entonce ¿ qué significa ? por ejemplo (nos invitaron solo por cumplir ) mi pregunta es que esta parte de oración ( por cumplir ) ¿ qué reflecta una razón, una motivacion, un medio , un periodo de tiempo ?
Tiene un acento del sur de inglés. Jaja. Suena impresionante!
Jajaja qué interesante, gracias por tu comentario.
Can we say: “Ella se casó con un americano por papeles” o para papeles no por amor o dinero? Thanks for your great video!
Hi! In that case it would be POR papeles. Thanks for watching!
No por amor. Thanks
Andrea can you send me the PDF because the video all these days is loading
Hi Aisha, can you email me this request? Thank you!
HOLA. ANDREA QUE TE PARECE ESTOS EJEMPLOS?
VOY PARA ESPANA DESTINO
EL TRABAJO ES PARA SEMANA QUE VIENE FECHA DETERMINADA
HIZE LAS TAREAS DOMESTICAS POR TI. O SEA EN TU LUGAR
HIZE UN PASTEL PARA TI.O SEA PARA ENTREGARTE,REGALARTE
EL ESTA POR EL CENTRO.O SEA NO SABEMOS EXATAMENTE DONDE
Muy bien, tienes pequeños errores pero lo haces muy bien.
Cuál es la diferencia entre “por primera vez o para primera vez” y “para siempre” o “por siempre” gracias 😊
PARA siempre y POR siempre es prácticamente lo mismo.
Tengo una consulta...
1) Va a la oficina a obtener las boletos.
2) Va a la oficina por obtener las boletos.
3) Va a la oficina para obtener las boletos.
¿Cuál es más correcto?
Yo usaría “para obtener” porque normalmente un infinitivo sigue “para” en frases similares. Obtener es el objetivo de la persona quien va.
@@gamerkid119 Muchas, muchas gracias maestra!
Muy bien hecho, los dos hicieron un buen trabajo. Me alegra mucho cuando ustedes aprenden cosas nuevas.
¿Pueden los hablantes nativos de español saber cómo usarlos correctamente? ¿siempre?
Sí, generalmente sabemos cómo usarlos.
Menos inglés en este vid, Andrea. Bravo. (Por este virus no puedo salir de Cataluya ahora. Pero quiero viajar al sur del planeta para evitar invierno).
Sería genial que viajes al sur.
Por un motivo vs Para un objectivo: very confusing since, at least to me, a motive can be an objective and visa versa ???
Hi Michael, I can see how this can get a bit confusing. Here's an article from our site, maybe it will help you with this matter: spanishlandschool.com/por-vs-para/#more-4867
'' Vamos a Perú para las vacaciones. '' Me parece que esta oración debe utilizar POR, puesto que las vacaciones suena como si fuera el periodo de tiempo. Pero 'para' es la opción correcta
. Very weird. Extraño.
La mejor manera de decirlo es: ' Vamos a Perú para las vacaciones. ''
Peru is the destination of where you are going. That is the reason to use -- para--
Video not working for me, 10 seconds then buffering ?
