"Last week, I traveled to Rome to meet the secret informant. While I was there, I paid €500 for a tailored suit because a spy must always look his best."

In many Romance languages, words like por/para or pour or per can cause confusion between to and for.

  • Use to for a destination (traveled to Rome).
  • Use to + an infinitive verb to express purpose (to meet). Never use for + an infinitive verb!
  • Use for + a noun when talking about an exchange or purpose (paid €500 for a suit).
