1. 1

    Pending describes something that is waiting to happen, be decided, or be finished — it hasn't been settled yet. If your visa application is 'pending,' it means no one has said yes or no yet; you're just waiting. You'll also see 'pending' used as a kind of 'while waiting for' — like 'the trip is on hold, pending better weather,' meaning they're waiting to see if the weather gets better before deciding.
