What's the difference between "wait" and "hang on"? What's the difference between "wait" and "hang on"? I often hear both on movies. And I just found another question. If I wrote "What's the difference A and B?" without between, is that sentence wrong?

"Wait" and "hang on" both pretty much mean the same thing. "Wait" is usually more curt and to the point while "hang on" is used in a more casual context. Yes, the grammar is incorrect without the "between".

Keita the difference is that 'hang on' is more informal than 'wait'. Also, you should say: 'If I WRITE' not wrote. And 'between' should be in that sentence - otherwise it doesn't make sense.
