Writing practice
Waiting: 等待, 等着, 一会儿
Your lunch delivery arrived very late and in bad condition. Write a complaint to the delivery app's customer service: when you ordered, how long you waited, what you did while waiting, and what you want them to do. Write 80–180 characters.
- Say how long you waited with 等了 + duration (等了一个半小时)
- Use 等 + person + duration, or 等着 + verb
- Quote someone asking you to wait with 等一下
- A polite request at the end
Pick with a tap, a number key or Space. A Chinese keyboard on your device works in the box below too.
