What code can i use to delay an event in javascript?

I have been working on a project for about 5 days, and wanted to make a button which would give a delay of 2 seconds before triggering the event. I need help, please :(

document.querySelector('button').addEventListener("click",() => setTimeout(yourFunctionName, 2000))
