Answer and Explanation:
In Spanish, the words <em>por</em> and <em>para</em> are commonly confused because of their similar meaning. Por and Para are usually used instead of 'for'. However, they are used in different situations.
There are different ways in which we can accurately use the preposition 'por' instead.
