      It seems like the difference between por and para is the difference between a point and a line. Destinations, recipients, deadlines are points in time and space. Durations, motivations, modes of travel and explanations are "lines" in that they have a beginning, middle and end.

    I’ve been doing some thinking recently and I pieced together in my head that for anytime para doesn’t directly translate to “for” it’s more like a “in order to”. Por ejemplo cuando tú dices “estoy entrenando para bajar el peso” it’s literally just “I’m training in order to lose weight”. Just a theory I thought of. The main thing really tho is that it doesn’t mean one thing and it was never supposed to lol it’s main function is being a connector I’ve realized recently. Pero thank you so much for your videos I just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I’ve been implementing your methods since (im latino born in the states and never learned Spanish lol). So I just spent a week in DR, it was my second time, and I was way more comfortable and had more confidence to speak and make errors than my first visit. Appreciate what you do!

      They both roughly translate to "sorry"/"forgive me"/"excuse me" (depending on context).
      Perdón is just a phrase. If anything it's a noun (el perdón). The phrase I think is just a shortening of "pedir perdón" (to ask for forgiveness/to apologize)
      (Pido) perdón, señor.
      Disculpe comes from "disculpar".
      Disculpe is in the "usted command" and more formal. It roughly means sorry/forgive me/excuse me. Disculpa would be the "tú command".
      Discúlpeme (or just disculpe is fine) usted señor.
      Discúlpame tú chico.

Disculpe para mi solo se usaria con gente mayor o maestros, etc. Claro, los jovenes podrIan decirse "disculpame amigo" de uno y al otro, Pero para mi perdon seria mas neutral. Disculpe (que se conjuga con usted) es si lo mas formal entre todas opciones.

    I was very excited when you said that with practice, you’ll know if something’s not correct, because it sounds wrong. That happened to me in a Spanish class that a coworker and I took. We were working in groups and were supposed to insert the correct article before the nouns listed on a worksheet. One of the words was “llaves.” No one in our group knew whether it was masculine or feminine, but to me, las llaves sounded correct. Los llaves sounded weird. Maybe my years of taking classes but never taking on the identity of a native speaker and therefore not becoming fluent is turning around! I think it will go much faster now! You speak to my heart with your mindset training!! Thank you!
