How is "as for" said in Spanish?

Question

I'm writing a Spanish paper, and I would like to use the phrase "as for" in terms of describing another point. For example: "I like that one, but as for the other one, it is not very useful."

Thank you.

Would the phrase "en cuanto de" work well?

Hola, you're almost right. "en cuanto a " is a little better.

¡Gracias! - n1243, Oct 30, 2015

Dani, could one also use "para ella" or "a ella"? - Winkfish, Oct 30, 2015

Nope! "as for" is en cuanto a. there may be another phrase that I can't think of right now, but "para ella" is "for her" in the sense of "I bought a present for her." Same for "a ella" when used with "le" (Yo le compré un regalo a ella.) - Daniela2041, Oct 30, 2015

Dani, I was thinking about something like, "A ella, le gusta...." I always though of that as "As for her,.." So i figured that something like "A ella, no es sympatica." As usual, thanks!! - Winkfish, Oct 30, 2015
