*Around

The first thing you should know is that the term ' around ' as an adverb is not picked up by the Dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy and, therefore, is incorrect .

Around

On the other hand, the adverb of place 'around' does appear in the RAE under the following meaning: "It denotes the situation of people or things that surround others, or the direction in which they move around them" / "Contour". Thus, we use it when we refer to a place, person or object that is in a surrounding way near something. We also use it to round figures or indicate approximations. Example: I paid for those pants around € 10 / I 'll take about an hour / It's always around her .
