Questions & Answers about Wir sind immer füreinander da.

What does füreinander literally mean, and how does it compare to English?

Füreinander is made of:

• für = for
• einander = each other / one another

So literally it’s “for each other”.

In this sentence, Wir sind immer füreinander da means something like:

• We are always there for each other.
• We always support each other / have each other’s back.

It’s not just physical presence; it implies emotional or practical support, like in English “to be there for someone.”

Why is füreinander written as one word and not für einander?

Modern standard German writes this as one word: füreinander, not für einander.

• einander is already a pronoun meaning each other / one another.
• When für + einander became a fixed combination, spelling was standardized to füreinander.
• The same pattern appears in words like:
  • miteinander (with each other)
  • voneinander (from each other)
  • untereinander (among each other)

Für einander with a space is old-fashioned or considered a spelling mistake in modern standard German.
