Common Mistakes

  • Sigo esperandó una solución.

    The gerund *esperando* never carries an accent; the accent makes it a past participle, which is incorrect here.

  • Sigo esperando una soluciónes.

    The noun *solución* is singular; the plural form is *soluciones* and would change the meaning.

  • Sigo esperas una solución.

    After *seguir* you must use a gerund, not the infinitive *esperar*.

Alternatives

  • Todavía estoy esperando una solución.

    I’m still waiting for a solution.

  • Aún no tengo una solución.

    I don’t have a solution yet.

  • Continúo esperando una solución.

    I continue waiting for a solution.

Cultural Tip

In many Spanish‑speaking cultures, showing patience is a sign of respect, but repeatedly saying *sigo esperando* can also signal polite frustration. Adjust your tone: a calm voice shows patience, while a slightly urgent tone can convey that you need the issue resolved soon.
