معنی
Indicating a location at some distance.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Mexico, 'por allá' is often used to refer to the United States ('el norte'). When someone says 'se fue para allá,' they often mean the person emigrated. Spaniards are more likely to use 'por allí' for things they can see. 'Por allá' sounds more poetic or refers to an immense, unseen distance. The gesture of 'lip-pointing' is very common in Argentina and Uruguay when saying 'por allá'. It's considered efficient and casual. In Colombia, 'por allá' can be used to describe someone's mood as 'distracted' or 'in the clouds'.
Use your hands
Spanish is a gestural language. Always point when saying 'por allá' to be understood better.
Don't over-stress
Don't make the 'll' sound like an English 'L'. It's a 'Y' sound (or 'sh' in Argentina).
