In Chinese, the literal meaning of \u201c\u7b49 (d\u011bn\u0261)\u201d means wait for a moment. For example, \u201c\u7b49\u4e00\u5206\u949f (d\u011bn\u0261 y\u00ec f\u0113nzh\u014dng)\u201d waiting for a minute. The expression \u201c\u7b49\u7b49 (d\u011bn\u0261d\u011bn\u0261)\u201d except the meaning of \u201cwaiting for a while\u201d, is commonly used after two or more coordinate words to indicate that the list is unfinished. It is equal to \u201c\u2026 and so on\u201d in English. In the conversation below, Anna bought a lot of things for the New Year, and she used \u201c\u7b49\u7b49 (d\u011bn\u0261d\u011bn\u0261)\u201d to tell Peter that there were something else as well.<\/p>\n

1. Waiting for a while<\/h2>\n

Micheal:<\/span>
\nCh\u00ed d\u00e0o le \uff0c w\u01d2 men ku\u00e0i di\u01cenr \uff01

Here it\u2019s the same as \u7b49\u4f1a\u513f\uff08d\u011bng hu\u00ecr \uff09and \u7b49\u4e00\u4e0b(d\u011bng y\u00ed xi\u00e0 ). All of them are means waiting for a while.<\/p>\n
