"Czekamy na kierowcę autobusu."

Translation: We are waiting for a bus driver.

[Zed895]

we are waiting for the driver of the bus -why is it wrong?

[Vengir]

I don't really know anyone who who would write that way.

[AntonAtten]

I just did. We are waiting (next to the bus) and the driver doesn't show up.

[Vengir]

I was referring to the "driver of the bus" specifically.

[claudiuas]

It should be accepted though. Like the house owner = the owner of the house.

[Jellei]

It is accepted.

[Amy7300]

I'm wondering why this wasn't accepted:
"We are awaiting the bus driver"

[Jellei]

I think the register is higher here, I would translate it as "Oczekujemy na kierowcę"...

[AlexPhysique]

why not Kierowca?

[alik1989]

The preposition na requires the accusative case. Kierowca is nominative.
