Choose the appropriate option.

A) for her arriving - герундий не используют, когда есть существительное arrival

B) for her to arrive - используемая форма

(Why A or B (difference) )

Answer 3

The appropriate option is B) for her to arrive.

The correct sentence would be: "No, we're still waiting for her to arrive. Her flight has been delayed."

The reason for choosing option B is that when we use the verb "wait" in this context, it is typically followed by "for" and then an infinitive form of the verb. In this case, the infinitive form of "arrive" is "to arrive." So, the correct construction is "waiting for her to arrive." Option A, "for her arriving," is not grammatically correct in this context. We use the infinitive form "to arrive" to indicate that we are waiting for her arrival in the future.
