Despedir
¿Cómo se dice...?

"It will take him a while to say goodbye and collect his things"

"Le tardará un rato despedir a todos y recoger sus cosas"

Elaina will become famous soon enough
No entiendo, ¿porqué le sobra el pronombre "le"?

I thought it was correct......... Le tardará = It will take him a while OR Se tardará ------ can also be used, no?

"Tardar" no es un verbo pronominal y el "le" no se justifica como "dativo de interés". Caso distinto si se tradujese literalmente; pues el "le" se convertiría en OI:

Le (OI) tomará un rato (OD) despedirse de todos y recoger sus cosas (Suj).

Un saludo.
