What is "se eu for"? I always get completely thrown off when I hear "for" spoken in a conversation, perhaps because I'm thinking of the English word "for". Every time I look it up I don't see any memorable or clear explanation for it. When and why is it used?

It's the future of the subjunctive of the verbs to be and to go. It is usually used with conjunctions such as "se", "quando", "assim que", etc. In English you would use the PRESENT tense, "If I am" or "When I go", for example. Se eu for ao Brasil. If I go to Brazil. Se eu for inteligente. If I am intelligent. Quando eu for lá. When I go there. Hope it helped.

It's the future subjunctive form of the verb 'to be'. (ser) 'Se eu for...' can be translated as if 'If I am...' (for a future possibility) or 'If I were to be... '

SE EU FOR is very close to IF I WOULD GO/LEAVE .... Se eu for embora agora? Quem vai te proteger? Quem vai te entender? Quem vai te dar carinho? Se eu for embora agora Quem vai te ajudar a enxergar que amar é dar e receber? D'BLACK music.
