Para is a type of prefix ( part of a word at the beginning) It acts as a modifier and can limit or qualifies the meaning of a word.
Examples:
Paramilitary: a member ( part) of a military group.
Paramedic and paraprofessional for example is a trained, qualified person that works besides a professional or medic.
Paragraph: A part of several subdivisions in a piece of written work.
iTS SPANiSH FOR THE WORD "FOR"
It is a prefix used in many English words, from the Greek para meaning beside or surrounding. So, for example, a paramedic works beside a medical doctor. Paragraph, then, comes from 2 Greek words, para meaning surrounding and graph meaning writing. So a paragraph is not just a single word, but also the writing surrounding it.
'Para' in English loosely means the same as 'quasi' meaning 'resembling' - some examples: police are considered paramilitary (obvious); a paralegal, though loaded with legal knowledge is not a lawyer, but because of the knowledge, resembles one; paramedic - loaded with medical knowledge - but not as much as (therefore resembles) a doctor.
Paragraph. Separating one sentence from another with a wide gap.
'Para' generally, is like what everyone below has stated already however, it is sometimes used as a short form/ slang of meaning 'paranoid'.
