Explanation

While 'wetim' is understandable, 'lesim' (from 'les') meaning 'to look/watch for' better captures the sense of actively monitoring for an asynchronous result. It's more focused on the expectation of something happening, rather than just passively waiting. This also helps differentiate it from the more general 'wait'.

Issue breakdown

specificity The collapsing with 'wait' might be confusing. 'Await' specifically implies waiting for an *asynchronous* operation, while 'wait' can be more general.
