文法題:it is waiting for repair

the door has no life, so the door doesn't know how to 'wait'.

The door is out of order, please use another exit.

我認為你想要講 "awaiting"

正確方式是這樣寫:

The door is awaiting repair, so please exit through the other door.

或

The door is awaiting repair. Please exit through the other door.

兩句任何一句也OK

你考起我 la. :)
You usually use "wait" when your subject is a person waiting for something to happen but that something may or may not happen.
Tom waits. He waits. She waits. I waited and waited but she never showed.

You usually use "await" when your subject is a thing and that thing or event is destined to happen. E.g. Death awaits you. The door awaits a fix.

Notice that I said "usually" because there are always exceptions but we won't go there.
