「一会儿」

小段时间。中文很含糊,英文也很宽松。

等一会儿。         Wait a sec. / Hold on.
待一会儿。         Stay for a bit.
一会儿见。         See you in a bit.

三张脸

中文英文
一会儿(短时间)a moment / a sec / a minute
一会儿(待一段)for a while / for a bit
过一会儿(将来)in a bit / in a while / later

in a bit vs for a bit

in a bit      过一小会儿(之后)    I'll come in a bit.
for a bit     一小会儿(持续)       Stay for a bit.

介词不一样,意思走两头。
