I was reading a book today and I got confused by the sentence 'Don't let's wait.'
Don't let's wait?
Is it correct to say this? I have seen sentences like:
Let's wait.
… and I found lots of results for:
Let's not wait.
… on Google. This question here asks about sentences like:
Let's don't wait.
Niklon's answer there says that this sentence is not grammatical because it has both let's and don't together. So does this means that that the main example here is ungrammatical?
