“请假”英语怎么说？

1、大家首先想到的可能是：Ask for leave.

比如：ask for a leave today；ask for a leave on Sep 5th.具体向某人请假可以说ask somebody for 3-days leave。举几个栗子：

① 他请了事假还是病假？Did he ask for sick leave or business leave?

② 你最好还是去请假，否则你可能有麻烦。You'd better ask for leave, or you may be in trouble.

③ 我妻子需要住院治疗，我能请两周的假吗？Can I ask for two-week leave？My wife needs hospital treatment.

2、另外常用的就是take time off，举几个栗子：

① You should take the day off. 你应该请假。

② I need to take two days off. 我需要请两天假。

③ Would it be possible for me to take next Tuesday off? 下周二我想请假，可以吗？

④ He is under intense pressure at work, so he is unable to take time off. 他工作压力很大，所以没法请假。
