Notas de uso
- Often followed by a or su: indugiare a rispondere, indugiare su un dettaglio. English speakers often omit the preposition.
- More literary or formal than aspettare or tardare. In everyday speech, it can sound elevated depending on context.
- Unlike rimandare, it usually suggests lingering or hesitation by a person, not simply rescheduling an event.
