Me esperas? Esperame aqui. Te amo, mi cielo, esperame aqui mismo. No te vayas...te vuelvo pronto. Si me esperas, te vuelvo como machina de ferria. There's just no end to the ways you could say that. wink

It's an everyday spanish type construction...I don't know what you are asking...did I spell it wrong? - ChamacoMalo, Sep 12, 2009
I think Q means that you need both question marks to make a correct sentence. - --Mariana--, Sep 12, 2009

"To wait on someone - hand and foot" Is an example. (It's where the word "waiter" comes from)

How would that be said in Spanish?

Will you wait on me? Once upon a time - not too long ago--1960-- the verb wait in addition of the regular meaning was used in restaurants as in, will you serve me ? or can I wait on you?

then the translation from English into Spanish could be, ¿ me sirves?

wait...to perform duties of a personal service - to act as a waiter or waitress.

I was thinking the same thing, Gus! :) And I think it is still used that way. For example: "What? You expect me to wait on you hand and foot?" jejeje - Valerie, Sep 13, 2009
