What's the difference "It's to you"and "It's

[Marcelo]

Hi I am always confused when using TO and FOR, please let me know the difference especially when to you and for you.

thanks!

Hi Marcelo,

Let's take an example of a letter arriving by post through your door. Another person could pick up the letter and see your name on the envelope and say: It's for you. If the other person opens the letter and discovers that it is a letter beginning: Dear Marcelo, the other person would say: It's written to you.

Alan
