Hear it in real life
What are you getting Dad for his birthday?
I have no idea - he's impossible to buy for.
My sister is impossible to buy for because she never says what she wants.
The mistake everyone makes
Not: My uncle is impossible for buy a present.
Say: My uncle is impossible to buy for.
Use "to buy for" after the person; do not insert "for" before the verb.
