Could explain to me the grammar of this sentence? ～てになる


> 「なんで この時は、食べてになるのに、待ってになるんですか? 」みたいな、

What does verb in て form + になる mean here?




Given your context, the speaker is mentioning specific word forms 食べて and 待って,
and they have no grammatical connection with other parts of the sentence. To
be a little reader-friendlier:

> 「なんでこの時は、『食べて』になるのに、『待って』になるんですか？」  
>  _" Why does it become 'matte' while 'tabete' in this case?"_

But few native speakers would be confused by this kind of insertion of a
couple raw words without explicit indication.
