Cultural Tip
In Brazilian Portuguese the formal imperative 'espere' is common in written or polite speech. In informal conversation you might hear 'espera' (second‑person singular informal). Also, Brazilians often add a friendly tone after 'Sim' by using a slight pause, which is reflected by the comma in the written form.
