At a soccer match, your waiting time to enter the stadium depends on how long and how fast the queue is moving.
At a restaurant, the wait for your dish depends on how many customers ordered before you.
If you are at a an event, such as at soccer stadium where two popular teams are about to play, the queues outside the stadium may be very long. In a case like this, the waiting time for you to enter the stadium gates will depend on how long and how fast the queue you will be in will be moving.
Another example is; you arrive at a restaurant and you find it packed to capacity. You quickly press your order. However, because so many people have already pressed their orders before you, your wait for your dish depends on how many people have already ordered before you. Please note that the word 'wait' functions both as a noun and as a verb. Hence it has been used as a noun in the restaurant example but as a verb in the stadium example.
So, you may say:
At a soccer match, your waiting time to enter the stadium depends on how long and how fast the queue is moving.
or
At a restaurant, the wait for your dish depends on how many customers ordered before you.
人気のある2チームの試合でサッカースタジアムのようなイベント会場では、スタジアムの外の行列はとても長いものになるでしょう。このような場合、スタジアムの入場ゲートに入るまでの時間は行列の長さや行列が動く時間によります。
他の例として、とあるレストランに着いたら満席だったとします。すぐさまあなたは注文をするでしょう。しかし、あなたの前に沢山の人が順番待ちしているため、あなたの注文がテーブルに来るまでの時間はどれだけ沢山の人があなたの前に順番を待っているのかによります。 'wait'という単語は名詞と動詞の両方の機能があることを覚えておいてください。従ってレストランの例で名詞として使われていますが、スタジアムの例では動詞として使われています。 つまり、次のように言えます。
"At a soccer match, your waiting time to enter the stadium depends on how long and how fast the queue is moving".
(サッカーの試合で、あなたの会場への入場の待ち時間は行列の長さと行列の動くスピードによります。)
"At a restaurant, the wait for your dish depends on how many customers ordered before you".
(レストランで食事を待つ時間はあなたの前にどれだけ沢山の人が注文したかによります。)
example

The two sentences you see above are terrific ways to express that amount of time you need to wait depends on the size of the crowd. In the last sentence you will see the expression jam-packed, which means crowded. The first sentence is appropriate for formal settings, while the last sentence is appropriate to use with close friends or family.
First we can talk about, "how crowded it is," to express the idea of if there are a lot of people or not. Secondly we can also talk about the, queue or line, if there is a certain point we have to stand and wait behind others in order to receive service.
