문화적 배경

In Spain, 'por aquí' is often used during the 'tapeo'. People move from bar to bar, and one person usually leads the group saying '¡Venga, por aquí!'. You will very often hear 'por acá' instead of 'por aquí'. It sounds slightly more casual and is extremely common in daily speech. In Buenos Aires, giving directions is an art form. 'Por aquí' will be followed by detailed instructions about 'colectivos' (buses).
