Today’s word is that one where you just sit around, and you take peeks at the clock and try to distract yourself because you’re in espera. Can you guess what that word is?
Espera (es-peh-rah) – (a) wait; waiting for
This word comes from the verb esperar which means to wait
Examples:
Estoy a la espera de la hora del almuerzo – I’m waiting for lunch hour/lunch time
Estoy a la espera de noticias – I’m waiting for news
Los soldados están a la espera de órdenes – The soldiers are waiting for orders
It is also the same conjugation when another person is waiting. For example:
Ella espera – she waits
Él espera – he waits
Ellos esperan – they wait
Do not confuse with:
Esfera which translates to sphere
