What about ‘por’?What about ‘por’? Essentially, por is used in

all instances when P.E.R.F.E.C.T. does not apply.

However, if you like to collect acronyms, here is one to use with por: A.T.R.A.C.T.E.D

This acronym covers many, but not all, of the main uses of por. There are many idiomatic expressions that use por.
