“Await”isafairlycommonwordinformalwriting,butyoudonotusuallyuseitinconversation.Insteadyouuse“waitfor”awaitVSwait這兩個(gè)詞都是動(dòng)詞，又都有“期待”、“等候”之意，但用法有所不同，它們的區(qū)別如下：（一）await是及物動(dòng)詞，后面直接接賓語，大都是抽象名詞，如：decision,reply,arrival,announcement，approval等；；wait一般作不及物動(dòng)詞用，waitfor的賓語一般是人或事物。

Weawaityourreplywithkeeninterest.

我們殷切地等著你們的回音。

Ihavebeenwaitingforherforanhouratthebusstop．我在公共車站等候她已一小時(shí)了。（二）await之后接名詞或動(dòng)名詞；wait之后接動(dòng)詞不定式。例如：

Weshallawaithearingfurtherfromthem．

Weshallwaittohearfurtherfromthem．我們在靜候他們進(jìn)一步的消息。

Weawait（orwaitfor）yourreply．

Wewaitfor（不能用await）youtoreply．

(三）當(dāng)await的主語是沒有生命的事物而賓語是人時(shí)，await表示beinstore或lieinwaitfor之意。如：

Onarrivingattheguesthouse，hefoundatelegramawaitinghim．

Littledidherealizewhatasurpriseawaitedhimathome．

Aheartywelcomewillawaityou．請注意，Timeandtidewait（s）fornoman（歲月不待人）的wait既可以加s，亦可不加s。
