Por vs. Para
Remember the confusion over Ser vs. Estar? Well, here's another one: Por vs. Para. They both mean "for", sort of of, but have very distinct uses and some additional applications and meanings.
Por indicates duration, the exchange of something, something done on behalf of another, or the means by which something is done.
Para indicates destination, whom or what something is for, or the recipient of something.
