A armadilha típica
Errado I am waiting for you since twenty minutes.
Certo I have been waiting for you for twenty minutes.
O presente português engana porque é lógico: a espera ainda dura, logo presente. O inglês raciocina ao contrário — começou antes, logo composto. I am waiting since twenty minutes mostra bem o problema: a forma contínua está certa, o tempo e a preposição estão errados.
