in a calm, patient way
In a calm way, without getting angry or upset while you wait or when something is difficult.
用法パターン：
[someone] [verb] patiently (for [something])
よくある間違い：
Learners often confuse "patient" and "patiently". Use "patient" before a noun or after linking verbs (e.g., "She is patient", "a patient teacher"), and use "patiently" to describe how an action is done (e.g., "She waits patiently"). Another mistake is writing *"paitently"* or confusing it with "patently", which has a completely different meaning ("clearly" or "obviously").
