Part est un nom féminin très productif en locutions. De la part de (from, on behalf of) est incontournable dans les communications : c'est de la part de qui ? (who's calling?, who is it from?). D'une part... d'autre part (on the one hand... on the other hand) structure un raisonnement comparatif.

À part (apart from, separately, except) et à part entière (fully, in one's own right) sont très fréquents. Prendre en bonne part (to take in good part, to not be offended) vs prendre en mauvaise part (to take offence). Nulle part (nowhere), quelque part (somewhere), partout (everywhere) forment la triade des adverbes de lieu indéfinis.
