How do you say "let's pause" in Japanese?

Question

I know "let's start" is hajimemashou and "let's end" is owarimashou. so what is "let's pause" in Japanese? something -mashou? thank you!

Answer 1

To add to what the poster above said:

Chotto matte-Hold on a minute...

Matte Kudasai-A minute, please...

Answer 2

Depending on the situation( pause what?...), the answer could be a little different.

Chotto yasumimashou, would be one.

I'm sorry, but Sam-kun doesn't seem like a real Japanese to me (born here, maybe? )  For one, "everybody" is "minasan".

Sorry again, but Anstahh's answer is not Japanese.

Answer 3

I think its this : 休止しよいなさい  kyuushiyoinasai  well it has rest in it :/

Answer 4

lets end

= owari NI shimashou

lets pause

= hitoyasumi shimashou (pause for a cup of tea etc)

Answer 5

let's pause

it kind of translates to

choto mate desu yo!  ÃƒÂ£Ã‚Â¡Ã£Â‚‡ã£ã¨ã¾ã¦ã§ã™ã‚ˆ

this mean: wait a minute!

to day wait a minute please:

choto mate kudasai ちょっとまてください。

to say everyone wait a minute please just add minisan: みにさん。

Answer 6

"Let's pause" in Japanese is:

[小]休止しましょう([shou]kyuushi shimashou)

or

一息つきましょう(hitoiki tsukimashou)

The latter sounds more informal.

Note: [ ] can be omitted.
