What about ‘por’?
O Essentially, por is used in all instances when P.E.R.F.E.C.T. does not apply.
O However, if you like to collect acronyms, here is one to use with por: A.T.R.A.C.T.E.D
O This acronym covers many, but not all, of the main uses of por. There are many idiomatic expressions that use por.
