Para generally indicates destination, purpose, recipient, or a deadline. Por often indicates duration, means, cause, or exchange. For example,

for or to with in order to in English, then para is likely the correct choice in Portuguese.

자주 묻는 질문 (6)
Este presente é para você.
Vou para o hotel.
para예요. 문맥을 보면 구분할 수 있어요. Ele para o carro(그는 차를 세운다)처럼 쓰이죠.
para의 격식 없는 구어체 버전이에요. 친구와 채팅할 때는 Mandei pra você라고 편하게 써보세요.Comprei comida para o meu cão(내 강아지를 위해 사료를 샀어)라고 할 수 있어요.
Pra는 단지 para를 짧게 줄인 말이에요. 브라질 구어체에서는 아주 흔하지만, 격식 있는 글쓰기에서는 피하는 게 좋아요.
