如何用英文写假条

生活中难免会出现意外事件。比如,你突然生病了,或者是发生重要事件,这些都可能让你没法工作,那就只好请假啦。如果领导你的是老外上司,那该如何写一个英文请假条呢?Don't worry!看了下面的内容,你就知道怎么写了。

首先,要在假条的上方写明假条是递给谁的。

To:假条是递给谁的

From:请假人

Date:写假条的日期(注意可不是请假的日期,不要弄混了哦!)

Subject:写上请假字样

例如:

To:Peter Stone,Manager

From:Lynn Chen,Financial Department

Date:May 22nd,2014

Subject:Casual Leave of Absence

其次,在假条的第一段,要开门见山但是有礼貌地提出请假,要写清你要请假的日期。

例如:

Peter,I would like to know if I could ask for a casual leave of absence for one day on May 24th,this Wednesday.

然后,在假条的第二段,你要简单明了地陈述请假的原因事由,并且要表达对此给工作带来不便的歉意。

例如:

This morning I received a telephone call from my dentist,urging me to come to his practice for immediate treatment of my teeth.I have been experiencing a stinging pain,depriving me of my sleep during the past fortnight.The situation could worsen,should infection occur.

Concerning my workload:As Wednesday is not as busy as the other weekdays,I think a one-day leave this Wednesday may be the best solution.I apologize for the inconvenience my absence from work may cause.

接着,在假条的最后一段,要写上你希望获得准假的请求,或者具体等候答复的时间。

例如:

Thanks.I will call you at 1:30 p.m.Or you can call me at any time.把以上几段综合起来,就是一则请假条。也没想像的那么难吧!例:

To:John Smith,Supervisor

From:George Chen,Accounting Department

Date:March 11,2001

Subject:Casual Leave of Absence

John,I would like to know if I could ask for a casual leave of absence from March 23 to 27.

Yesterday I received a letter from my parents,who are both over 70,telling me that a big flood took place at my home village,causing serious damage to my house.As the only son of my parents,I should be back to assess the situation,and help them to get over these difficulties.Though I cannot stay at home for too long a time,I should at least make arrangements for repair work.I believe my relatives in the village and my neighbors will also come to help.Financially I have no difficulties.

I will call you at 1:30 p.m.or you can call me at any time.
